Etymology
'haphazardly-led' originates from the word 'haphazard,' which comes from the Old French word 'hasard,' meaning 'game of chance.' The suffix '-ly' is added to form the adverb 'haphazardly,' and 'led' is the past participle of 'lead.'
'haphazard' changed from the Old French word 'hasard' and eventually became the modern English word 'haphazard.'
Initially, 'haphazard' meant 'game of chance,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'random or disorganized.'
