Etymology
'regularly-built' originates from the combination of 'regularly' and 'built', where 'regularly' comes from Latin 'regularis', meaning 'consistent', and 'built' is the past participle of 'build', from Old English 'byldan'.
'regularly' evolved from the Latin 'regularis' through Old French 'regulier', and 'built' from Old English 'byldan', eventually forming the modern English term 'regularly-built'.
Initially, 'regularly' meant 'in a consistent manner', and 'built' meant 'constructed'. Together, they describe something constructed in a consistent manner.
