Etymology

The word 'hotblooded' has its origins in Middle English, derived from the combination of 'hot' and 'blood.' 'Hot' in this context has an association with heat or passion, while 'blood' has historically been connected to the idea of temperaments and emotions, particularly in the context of various humors that were believed to influence human behavior. The concept of 'hotbloodedness' is often linked to the four humors theory, which was prevalent in ancient and medieval medicine. This theory categorized people as sanguine, choleric, melancholic, or phlegmatic, depending on their bodily fluids. Those considered choleric were thought to be hot-tempered and passionate, leading to the modern usage of the term 'hotblooded' to describe someone with similar fiery and impulsive characteristics.
