Etymology
The word 'cheerful' originates from the Old English word 'cēar', meaning 'care,' which later evolved to represent a state of happiness and joyfulness. The suffix '-ful' is added to indicate being full of or having a quality of something. Over time, 'cheerful' has been used to reflect a person's character who is light-hearted and pleasant. The comparative 'cheerfuller' and the superlative 'cheerfullest' follow a pattern found in English adjectives, although many speakers and writers retain the more standard comparative and superlative forms of happier and happiest instead. The usage of 'cheerfullest' is less common in contemporary English, but it remains a valid form, primarily found in literary or poetic contexts.
