steadily-produced
|stead-i-ly-pro-duced|
/ˈstɛdɪli prəˈdjuːst/
(steady)
firm and stable
Etymology
'steadily' originates from 'steady,' which comes from Old English 'stede,' meaning 'place' or 'position.' 'Produced' comes from Latin 'producere,' where 'pro-' meant 'forward' and 'ducere' meant 'to lead.'
'Steady' evolved from Old English 'stede' to Middle English 'stedi,' and 'produce' evolved from Latin 'producere' to Middle English 'producen.'
Initially, 'steady' meant 'firmly placed,' and 'produce' meant 'to lead forward.' Over time, 'steadily-produced' evolved to mean 'consistently and continuously made.'
