customarily used
Etymology
'traditionally-applied' originates from the combination of 'traditionally' and 'applied'. 'Traditionally' comes from the Latin word 'traditionem', meaning 'handing over, passing on'. 'Applied' comes from the Latin word 'applicare', meaning 'to attach or join'.
'Traditionally' evolved from the Latin 'traditionem' through Old French 'tradicion' and Middle English 'tradicioun'. 'Applied' evolved from the Latin 'applicare' through Old French 'applier' and Middle English 'applien'.
Initially, 'traditionally' meant 'handing over' and 'applied' meant 'to attach'. Over time, they evolved to mean 'customarily used' and 'put into practice', respectively.
