Etymology
'urban-inspired' originates from the English word 'urban,' which comes from the Latin word 'urbanus,' meaning 'of or pertaining to a city.' The suffix '-inspired' is derived from the Latin 'inspirare,' meaning 'to breathe into.'
'urban' changed from the Latin word 'urbanus' and eventually became the modern English word 'urban.' The combination with 'inspired' formed the compound adjective 'urban-inspired.'
Initially, 'urban' meant 'pertaining to a city,' and 'inspired' meant 'breathed into.' Over time, 'urban-inspired' evolved to mean 'influenced by urban characteristics.'
