Etymology
The word 'fat' comes from the Old English 'fวฃtt,' which means 'fat, oily, or rich,' and is derived from the Proto-West Germanic word '*fetta,' meaning 'rich, fatted.' As languages evolved, the term has retained its association with body fat and richness, especially in dietary contexts. The comparative form 'fatter' follows the standard linguistic pattern of English, where adding '-er' denotes an increase in the quality or quantity of the original adjective. Over time, in contemporary usage, 'fatter' can evoke more complex responses due to societal attitudes towards body image, health, and wellness, often seen in discussions around obesity and body positivity. Additionally, the word has been colloquially used in descriptions of not just physical traits but also regarding abundance in various contexts, further diversifying its application.
