Etymology
The term 'blotchier' derives from the noun 'blotch,' which itself has its origins in the Middle English word 'bloche' or 'bloche,' meaning a spot or blot. This Middle English word can be traced back further to the Old Norse word 'blรณรฐ,' which means blood or fluid, hinting at the association of irregularity linked to liquid marks. 'Blotch' came to primarily describe irregular stains or spots on surfaces, particularly skin and paper. As the language developed, the comparative and superlative forms were created, leading to 'blotchier' to describe an increase in the number or size of such spots. It reflects both visual characteristics and often implies a negative aspect, especially in contexts where color uniformity is desired.
