Etymology

The word 'dry' comes from the Old English 'drฤ“ah' which means 'to deplete'. Over time, it evolved into 'dry' in Middle English, which kept the same meaning of lacking moisture. The superlative form 'dryest' indicates the extreme of this condition. The usage of 'dry' in English has evolved and expanded across various contexts, including weather phenomena and consumables like food and drink. The sense of being devoid of liquid is a fundamental characteristic that has been linguistically represented since ancient times, demonstrating the significance of moisture in life and agriculture.
