Etymology
'predictably-judged' originates from the combination of 'predictably' and 'judged', where 'predictably' comes from 'predict', meaning 'to foresee', and 'judged' from 'judge', meaning 'to form an opinion'.
'predictably' evolved from the Latin word 'praedicere', and 'judged' from the Old French 'jugier', eventually forming the modern English term 'predictably-judged'.
Initially, 'predictably' meant 'in a manner that can be predicted', and 'judged' meant 'evaluated'. Together, they convey the idea of an evaluation that is expected.
