Etymology
The word 'horsier' is derived from the word 'horsy', which itself originates from the Middle English 'hors', which has its roots in Old English 'hors', meaning horse. The suffix '-y' adds an ornamental or descriptive quality, suggesting something relating to horses. The comparative form '-ier' is a standard modification in English to denote a higher degree. The love for horses and the equestrian culture has led to the usage of such derivatives, which convey specific attributes associated with horses. The development of horseback riding and horse breeding throughout history has further influenced the usage and connotation of these terms, leading 'horsier' to be recognized in contexts related to equestrianism and horse breeding.
