Etymology

The word 'funky' has its origins in African-American vernacular, dating back to the early 20th century. The roots of 'funk' trace back to the mid-1900s, where it was used to describe an earthy smell, particularly in relation to sweat or body odor. Over time, the term evolved to encompass a broader meaning, particularly in the realms of music and style. In the 1960s, 'funk' became associated with a new genre of music characterized by strong bass lines and rhythm, influencing a distinctive cultural movement. The comparative form 'funkier' emerged as the subcultures surrounding funk music and fashion began to prioritize boldness and vibrancy, leading to a lifestyle that celebrated uniqueness and self-expression. Today, 'funky' and its variants are widely used to describe not only music and fashion but also settings that incorporate an eclectic and lively atmosphere.
