strictly structured
Etymology
'rigidly-organized' originates from the combination of 'rigidly,' meaning 'in a strict or inflexible manner,' and 'organized,' meaning 'arranged or structured in a systematic way.'
'Rigidly' comes from the Latin word 'rigidus,' meaning 'stiff,' and 'organized' comes from the Greek word 'organon,' meaning 'tool' or 'instrument.'
Initially, 'rigidly' meant 'stiff or unyielding,' and 'organized' meant 'arranged systematically.' Together, they convey a sense of strict, inflexible arrangement.
