Etymology
The word 'darklier' originates from the base word 'dark', which itself has roots in Old English 'deorc', meaning 'dark, obscure, or hidden'. Over time, the word evolved through Middle English as 'derke' before arriving at its modern form. The comparative 'darklier' is formed using the adverbial suffix '-ly' attached to the comparative 'darklier' as used in contemporary English literature. Although the comparative form is less frequently utilized compared to its adjective counterpart, it can still be found in poetic and literary expressions, particularly in works that seek to explore themes of darkness or the contrast between light and shadow. The use of 'darklier' emphasizes a gradual intensification of darkness in various contexts.
