Etymology

The word 'flatulent' originates from the Latin term 'flatulentus', which stems from 'flatus', meaning 'a blowing, breath, or flatulence'. The Latin 'flatus' is derived from the verb 'flare', which means 'to blow'. The term has been used in English since the late 16th century, primarily in a medical context, to describe the condition of having an excessive buildup of gas in the gastrointestinal tract. The use of the word has evolved to describe not just the physical state of being gassy, but also to characterize the condition as awkward or socially uncomfortable.
