Etymology
The word 'ill' has Old English origins, coming from the word 'yfel' which meant 'bad, evil'. Over time, the word evolved to represent both the feeling of being unwell and actions or situations that are unfavorable or unpleasant. The use of 'ill' in English has been consistent throughout history, adapting to modern contexts while retaining its original meanings.
