Etymology

The word 'hot' originates from the Old English 'hat,' which means 'having a high temperature.' The comparative form 'hotter' developed through the regular morphological process found in many adjectives in English, where '-er' is added to the base form to indicate a greater degree of the quality. Tracing further back, the Proto-Germanic root '*hatwaz' has connections to similar terms in other Germanic languages, indicating a consistent understanding of 'heat' across different cultures. The usage of 'hotter' appeared more frequently in Middle English texts as the language evolved. Over the centuries, it has been used not only in everyday contexts but also in more literary and scientific discussions, highlighting changes in climate and the sensation of heat experienced in various environments.
