appropriately expressed
Etymology
'suitably' originates from 'suit,' which comes from Old French 'suite,' meaning 'attendance' or 'act of following.' 'Articulated' comes from Latin 'articulatus,' meaning 'to divide into joints.'
'Suitably' evolved from Middle English 'sute,' while 'articulated' transformed from Latin 'articulatus' to the modern English 'articulate.'
Initially, 'suitably' meant 'in a manner that follows,' and 'articulated' meant 'jointed.' Over time, 'suitably' evolved to mean 'appropriately,' and 'articulated' to mean 'clearly expressed.'
