WALLPAPERED Meaning and Definition

  1. "Wallpapered" is an adjective that refers to an object or surface covered with wallpaper. Wallpaper is a type of decorative material used to adorn and embellish the walls of a room. It usually consists of paper or vinyl that is printed with various patterns, designs, or colors. When a surface, such as a wall, is plastered or covered with wallpaper, it is said to be wallpapered.

    Typically, wallpapering involves the process of measuring, cutting, pasting, and attaching strips of wallpaper onto a clean and prepared surface. This is often done by applying an adhesive or wallpaper paste to the back of the wallpaper, which is then carefully aligned and affixed to the designated area. The wallpaper strips are carefully smoothed and pressed to ensure a smooth and even finish without any bubbles or wrinkles. Wallpapering is commonly used in interior design to enhance the aesthetic appeal of a space, as well as to provide color, texture, or pattern to the walls.

    The term "wallpapered" can also be used metaphorically to describe a situation or object that appears covered or filled with a pattern or design, resembling the appearance of wallpaper.

Etymology of WALLPAPERED

The word "wallpapered" is derived from the combination of two separate words: "wallpaper" and the suffix "-ed".

The noun "wallpaper" originated in the early 18th century and initially referred to a decorative paper used to cover the walls of a room. The word was formed by combining "wall", referring to the vertical structure that encloses a building or room, and "paper", indicating the material.

The suffix "-ed" is the past-tense marker in English, used to indicate a completed action or state. In the case of "wallpapered", it indicates that something has been covered or decorated with wallpaper.

Therefore, "wallpapered" emerged as a verb in the English language to describe the action of adorning or covering a wall with wallpaper.
