Etymology
'untraditionally-displayed' originates from the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not,' combined with 'traditionally,' derived from 'tradition,' and 'displayed,' from the verb 'display.'
'Tradition' comes from Latin 'traditio,' meaning 'a handing over, delivery.' 'Display' comes from Old French 'despleier,' meaning 'to unfold, spread out.'
Initially, 'display' meant 'to unfold or spread out,' but over time it evolved to mean 'to present or show.'
