Etymology
The word 'frighted' is derived from the Old English word 'fryht', which means 'fear' or 'terror'. The term evolved through Middle English as 'frigten', which referred to the act of making someone afraid. It is linked to various Germanic languages, where similar roots can be found related to fear. The transition into modern English reflects a broader understanding of emotional reactions to frightening stimuli. The usage of 'frighted' has become less common compared to its simpler form 'frightened', but it still conveys a distinct sense of immediate fear connected to an event, illustrating the word's continuing relevance in expressing human emotions.
