Etymology
'regularly-awarded' originates from the combination of 'regularly' and 'awarded', where 'regularly' means 'at consistent intervals' and 'awarded' means 'given as a prize or recognition'.
'Regularly' and 'awarded' have been used separately in English since the Middle Ages, but their combination into 'regularly-awarded' is a modern construct.
Initially, 'regularly' meant 'in a regular manner' and 'awarded' meant 'given as a prize', and this combined meaning has remained consistent.
