'quality-focused' originates from the combination of 'quality' and 'focused', where 'quality' refers to the standard of something as measured against other things of a similar kind, and 'focused' means concentrated on a particular goal or task.

'quality' comes from the Latin word 'qualitas', and 'focused' is derived from the Latin 'focus', meaning 'hearth' or 'fireplace', which evolved to mean 'center of activity or interest'.

Initially, 'quality' referred to the nature or essence of something, while 'focused' meant concentrated. Together, they evolved to mean having a concentrated emphasis on quality.
