expected confirmation
Etymology
'predictably-verified' originates from the combination of 'predictably' and 'verified'. 'Predictably' comes from 'predict', which originates from Latin 'praedicere', meaning 'to say beforehand'. 'Verified' comes from 'verify', which originates from Latin 'verificare', meaning 'to make true'.
'predictably' evolved from the Latin 'praedicere' through Old French 'predire', and 'verified' evolved from Latin 'verificare' through Old French 'verifier', eventually forming the modern English term 'predictably-verified'.
Initially, 'predictably' meant 'in a manner that can be predicted', and 'verified' meant 'confirmed as true'. Together, they evolved to describe something confirmed in an expected manner.
