'statically-generated' originates from the combination of 'static' and 'generate'. 'Static' comes from the Greek word 'statikos', meaning 'causing to stand', and 'generate' comes from the Latin word 'generare', meaning 'to produce'.

'Static' evolved from the Greek 'statikos' through Latin 'staticus', and 'generate' evolved from Latin 'generare'. The combination of these words into 'statically-generated' is a modern development in the context of web technology.

Initially, 'static' referred to something unchanging, and 'generate' meant to produce. Together, they now refer to content that is pre-produced and unchanging.
