Etymology
The term 'usually-linked' is a compound adjective formed from 'usually' and 'linked'. 'Usually' originates from the Latin word 'usualis', meaning 'customary', and 'linked' comes from the Old English 'hlencan', meaning 'to join or connect'.
'Usually' evolved from the Latin 'usualis' through Old French 'usuel', while 'linked' transformed from Old English 'hlencan' to the modern English 'link'.
Initially, 'usually' meant 'customary or habitual', and 'linked' meant 'joined or connected'. Together, they convey the idea of something being commonly associated.
