Word origin
The word 'fogginess' is derived from the noun 'fog', which originated from Old English 'fogga'. The concept of fog has been present in English since the 16th century, with 'fogginess' being a natural extension of this idea. The use of 'fogginess' to describe both weather conditions and mental states reflects the metaphorical connection between physical and mental clarity.
