Etymology

The word 'indecentest' is derived from the base term 'indecent', which stems from the Latin 'indecens' meaning 'not decent' or 'not fitting'. This Latin root combines 'in-', a prefix meaning 'not', with 'decens', from 'decere', which means 'to be fitting or proper'. The evolution of the term has seen it transform from its Latin roots into Middle English and eventually into modern usage, where it serves to heighten the degree of impropriety conveyed by 'indecent'. The addition of the superlative '-est' allows for an explicit comparison to other forms of indecency, thus lending a stronger connotation.
