non-standard execution
Etymology
'unconventionally-executed' originates from the combination of 'unconventional' and 'executed'. 'Unconventional' comes from 'un-' meaning 'not' and 'conventional' meaning 'based on or in accordance with what is generally done or believed'. 'Executed' comes from Latin 'executus', past participle of 'exsequi', meaning 'to follow out'.
'Unconventionally-executed' combines the modern English words 'unconventional' and 'executed', reflecting a blend of Latin and English influences.
Initially, 'executed' meant 'to carry out or perform', and 'unconventional' meant 'not based on or conforming to what is generally done'. Together, they describe an action performed in a non-standard way.
