Etymology
'unwaveringly-aimed' originates from the combination of 'unwaveringly' and 'aimed', where 'unwaveringly' means 'in a steady or resolute manner' and 'aimed' means 'directed towards a target'.
'unwaveringly' evolved from the Old English 'unwæfre', meaning 'not wavering', and 'aimed' from the Old French 'esmer', meaning 'to estimate or intend'.
Initially, 'unwaveringly' meant 'not moving or changing', and 'aimed' meant 'directed towards a target'. The combined form retains these meanings.
