'reversibilis' transformed into the English word 'reversible', and 'unitus' became 'united' in English, eventually forming the compound adjective 'reversibly-united'.
Initially, 'reversible' meant 'capable of returning', and 'united' meant 'joined together'. The compound 'reversibly-united' evolved to mean 'capable of being joined and separated without damage'.
