'wrongly-performed' originates from the combination of 'wrongly,' meaning 'incorrectly,' and 'performed,' meaning 'executed or carried out.'

'wrongly' and 'performed' have been used in English since the Middle Ages, with 'wrongly' deriving from Old English 'wranglice' and 'performed' from Old French 'parfournir.'

Initially, 'wrongly' meant 'in a wrong manner,' and 'performed' meant 'to carry out.' The combination retains these meanings in modern usage.
