Etymology
'unconventionally-delivered' originates from the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not', the root 'convention' from Latin 'conventio' meaning 'agreement', and the suffix '-ally' indicating 'in a manner'. 'Delivered' comes from Latin 'deliberare', meaning 'to set free'.
'unconventionally' evolved from 'unconventional', which was derived from 'convention'. 'Delivered' evolved from the Old French 'delivrer', which was derived from Latin 'deliberare'.
Initially, 'unconventionally' meant 'not in accordance with convention', and 'delivered' meant 'to set free'. Over time, 'unconventionally-delivered' evolved to mean 'presented in a non-traditional manner'.
