Etymology
The word 'fierce' has its origins in Middle English, traced back to the Old French word 'fier', which means proud or fierce, and from the Latin 'ferus', meaning wild or untamed. Used initially to describe animals and their behaviors, the term evolved in the English language to encompass various uses, including describing human emotions and competitive situations. Over time, 'fierce' has come to have both a literal and figurative sense, emphasizing a strong, passionate, and sometimes aggressive nature. The comparative form 'fiercer' highlights the increased degree of this intensity, often used to convey a sense of urgency or heightened stakes in various contexts.
