Etymology

The word 'beastly' comes from the Old French word 'bestial', which is derived from the Latin term 'bestialis', meaning 'like a beast'. This Latin term is rooted in 'bestia', which means 'beast' or 'animal'. The transition into English occurred around the late Middle Ages, with the meaning evolving to describe something that exhibits the brutish or unpleasant nature associated with animals. The comparative form 'beastlier' emerged as English evolved, capturing the notion of greater or more intense characteristics associated with being beastly. Its usage has remained relatively niche, primarily used in informal contexts or literary works to convey heightened brutality or savagery.
