Etymology
'successfully-adjusted' originates from the combination of 'successfully' and 'adjusted', where 'successfully' is derived from 'success' meaning 'achievement of an aim or purpose', and 'adjusted' from 'adjust' meaning 'to alter or move something slightly to achieve the desired fit, appearance, or result'.
'successfully-adjusted' evolved from the combination of the words 'successfully' and 'adjusted', which have been used in English since the 16th and 17th centuries respectively.
Initially, 'successfully-adjusted' meant 'modified in a way that achieves success', and this meaning has remained consistent in modern usage.
