Etymology

The word 'juicier' is derived from the word 'juice', which has its origins in Middle English 'juise', borrowed from Old French 'jus', which means 'juice, broth'. The concept of juice relates back to Latin 'jus', meaning 'broth, liquid', and has been a part of the English language since the late 14th century. 'Juice' has evolved to represent not just the liquid extracted from fruits or vegetables, but also the essence or inherent qualities of something. 'Juicier' emerged as a comparative form to describe something that contains more juice. This comparative form suggests not only a physical quality but can metaphorically express richness or abundance in flavor or experience.
