Etymology

The term 'jugful' combines the word 'jug', which originates from the Middle English word 'jugge' meaning a large container or vessel, with the suffix '-ful' which indicates quantity. The history of 'jug' can be traced back to the Old French word 'jogue' which means a pitcher or jug suitable for holding liquids. The practice of using jugs for storage dates back to ancient civilizations, where they were crafted from materials like clay and later glass. The suffix '-ful' has been used in English since the Old English period to denote the amount that a container can hold. Together, 'jugful' captures the essence of this amount, reflecting the everyday usage in domestic and culinary contexts.
