Etymology

The word 'fit' originates from the Old English 'fitt,' which meant to adapt or to make suitable. Over time, the usage evolved to refer specifically to physical condition, health, or suitability for a task. The suffix '-liest' is added to denote the superlative form, indicating the highest degree of the quality described by 'fit.' This construction follows a pattern seen in other English adjectives, where a comparative or superlative form is created to express that something possesses a quality to the greatest extent compared to others. The roots of 'fit' can be traced further back to Proto-Germanic *fitwaz, which carried a similar meaning, and links to various cognates in other Germanic languages. However, 'fitliest' as a term remains relatively rare in modern English usage, often replaced by 'fittest' in most contexts.
