Etymology
The term 'blur' originated from the early 19th century, with its roots believed to be in the dialectal use of the word from the late 1700s. Its exact origin is somewhat unclear, but it likely derives from the word 'bleary', which means dim or blurred. 'Bleary' itself harkens back to the early 1800s and is thought to come from the Scottish word 'bleer', a term used to describe watery or poorly focused eyes. Over time, the adjective form of 'blurry' developed, leading to the comparative form 'blurrier'. The evolution of these terms reflects advancements in visual technology, photography, and the common human experience with vision, underscoring how our language adapts to descriptive needs in everyday life.
