What hasty means

Done quickly without careful thought or preparation, often resulting in mistakes or poor decisions.

Where the word comes from

From Middle English *hastif*, borrowed from Old French *hastif*, meaning "quick" or "hurried."

The suffix *-y* was added in English to form the adjective.
