'riskily-linked' originates from the English word 'risk,' which comes from the Italian word 'risco,' meaning 'danger.' The suffix '-ly' is used to form adverbs, and 'linked' is derived from the Old English 'hlencan,' meaning 'to join or connect.'

'risk' evolved from the Italian 'risco' to the modern English 'risk,' while 'linked' transformed from the Old English 'hlencan' to 'link.'

Initially, 'risk' meant 'danger,' and 'linked' meant 'to join.' The combination 'riskily-linked' suggests a connection that involves danger.
