/ˌʌnprɪˈdɪktəbli ɪˈvæljueɪtɪd/
assessed unpredictably
Etymology
'unpredictably-evaluated' originates from the combination of 'unpredictable' and 'evaluate', where 'un-' is a prefix meaning 'not', 'predict' comes from Latin 'praedicere' meaning 'to foretell', and 'evaluate' from Latin 'valere' meaning 'to be strong or of value'.
'Unpredictably-evaluated' combines the modern English words 'unpredictable' and 'evaluate', which have evolved from their Latin roots through Old French and Middle English.
Initially, 'evaluate' meant 'to assess the value of something', and 'unpredictable' meant 'not able to be predicted'. Together, they form a phrase meaning 'assessed in a manner that cannot be predicted'.
