Etymology

The word 'brag' originates from the early 16th century, deriving from the Middle English 'braggen', which meant to boast or claim proudly. Its roots can also be traced back to the Scandinavian word 'brag' meaning 'to boast'. Historically, 'brag' has evolved from simply referring to boasting about one's bravery or successes to a broader sense of self-promotion in various contexts. The term has been associated with a sense of pride that often crosses the line into arrogance. Over time, the term has retained its negative undertones, commonly implying that the speaker lacks humility. While its usage has varied, 'brag' remains a prominent term in discussions about self-esteem, confidence, and interpersonal communication.
