Etymology
'temporarily-permitted' originates from the combination of 'temporary' and 'permit', where 'temporary' comes from Latin 'temporarius', meaning 'lasting for a time', and 'permit' from Latin 'permittere', meaning 'to allow'.
'Temporary' evolved from the Latin 'temporarius' through Old French 'temporaire', and 'permit' from Latin 'permittere' through Old French 'permettre'.
Initially, 'temporary' meant 'lasting for a time', and 'permit' meant 'to allow'. The combined form 'temporarily-permitted' retains these meanings in modern usage.
