expected confirmation
Etymology
'predictably-validated' originates from the combination of 'predictably' and 'validated'. 'Predictably' comes from 'predict', which originates from Latin 'praedicere', meaning 'to foretell'. 'Validated' comes from 'validate', which originates from Latin 'validare', meaning 'to make strong or confirm'.
'predictably' evolved from the Latin 'praedicere' through Old French 'predire', and 'validated' evolved from Latin 'validare' through Middle English 'validaten'.
Initially, 'predictably' meant 'in a manner that can be foretold', and 'validated' meant 'confirmed'. Together, they evolved to mean 'confirmed in an expected manner'.
