'wrongly-confirmed' originates from the combination of 'wrongly' and 'confirmed'. 'Wrongly' comes from Old English 'wrang', meaning 'wrong', and 'confirmed' comes from Latin 'confirmare', meaning 'to strengthen' or 'to establish'.

'wrongly' evolved from Old English 'wrang', and 'confirmed' from Latin 'confirmare', through Old French 'confirmer', eventually becoming the modern English 'confirmed'.

Initially, 'wrongly' meant 'in a wrong manner', and 'confirmed' meant 'to establish the truth'. Together, they evolved to mean 'incorrectly verified'.
