unexpectedly constructed
Etymology
'unpredictably-assembled' originates from the combination of 'unpredictable' and 'assemble', where 'un-' is a prefix meaning 'not', 'predict' comes from Latin 'praedicere' meaning 'to foretell', and 'assemble' from Latin 'assimblare' meaning 'to bring together'.
'unpredictably-assembled' changed from the combination of 'unpredictable' and 'assemble' in modern English usage.
Initially, it meant 'not put together in a predictable way', and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
