Etymology

The word 'eared' originates from the Old English 'eor', which means 'ear'. The term has been in use since the Middle Ages when it was commonly utilized to describe various animals, particularly those with notable ear structures. Over time, 'eared' evolved to encompass a broader application in biological and anatomical contexts, referring to both the presence and distinctive features of ears in different species. The suffix '-ed' signifies a past participle form, which in this case emphasizes the attribute of having ears. The linguistic evolution of 'eared' reflects the increasing interest in zoology and anatomy during the Renaissance, leading to more specific terminology to categorize and describe animals.
