Etymology
'unconventionally-done' originates from the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not,' combined with 'conventionally,' which comes from 'convention,' meaning 'a way in which something is usually done.'
'Conventionally' evolved from the Latin word 'conventio,' meaning 'agreement or meeting,' and 'done' from the Old English 'don,' meaning 'to perform or execute.'
Initially, 'conventionally' meant 'according to agreement,' but over time it evolved to mean 'in a customary or usual way.'
