Etymology of HORNIEST

The word "horniest" is derived from the noun "horny", which originated in Middle English. The etymology of "horny" can be traced back to the Old English word "horne", meaning "horn" (referring to the hard, pointed structure on certain animals). In the context of the word "horny", this originated from the idea that the sensation of desire or arousal parallels the hardness associated with a horn. Over time, the word "horny" came to be associated with sexual desire and lust. The superlative form, "horniest", is simply the comparative form "horny" with the suffix "-est", indicating the highest degree of horniness.
