Etymology
'worldwide-approved' originates from the combination of 'worldwide' and 'approved', where 'worldwide' means 'extending or reaching throughout the world' and 'approved' means 'officially agreed or accepted as satisfactory'.
'Worldwide' and 'approved' have been used separately in English since the 19th century, and their combination into 'worldwide-approved' reflects modern global standards and recognition.
Initially, 'approved' meant 'to regard as good or satisfactory', and 'worldwide' meant 'throughout the world'. Together, they evolved to mean 'recognized globally'.
