Etymology
Well-endowed comes from the verb endow, which means 'to give' or 'to provide', and the part well- which means 'very' or 'richly'. It was first used for money or gifts given to people or places, so a well-endowed university is 'richly supplied' with resources, and the phrase now means having a large amount of a good quality or thing.
