divided by tradition
Etymology
'traditionally-separated' originates from the combination of 'traditionally' and 'separated'. 'Traditionally' comes from the Latin word 'traditionem', meaning 'handing over, delivery'. 'Separated' comes from the Latin word 'separatus', meaning 'to divide'.
'Traditionally' evolved from the Latin 'traditionem' through Old French 'tradicion' and Middle English 'tradicioun'. 'Separated' evolved from the Latin 'separatus' through Old French 'separer' and Middle English 'separaten'.
Initially, 'traditionally' meant 'handing over customs', and 'separated' meant 'to divide'. Over time, they combined to describe something divided by tradition.
