Etymology of OBTEMPERATE

The word "obtemperate" does not have a widely acknowledged etymology as it is not a commonly used or widely recognized term. Therefore, it may not be possible to provide a definitive origin for the word. However, by analyzing its structure, we can make an educated guess regarding its potential origin.
