seldom-produced
|sel-dom-pro-duced|
/ˈsɛldəm prəˈdjuːst/
rarely created
Etymology
'seldom-produced' originates from the combination of 'seldom' and 'produced'. 'Seldom' comes from Old English 'seldan', meaning 'rarely', and 'produced' is derived from Latin 'producere', meaning 'to bring forth'.
'Seldom' changed from Old English 'seldan' to Middle English 'seldom', and 'produced' evolved from Latin 'producere' to the modern English 'produced'.
Initially, 'seldom' meant 'rarely', and 'produced' meant 'to bring forth'. The combined term 'seldom-produced' retains the meaning of something rarely created.
