Etymology
The word 'lovely' has its origins in Middle English, derived from the Old English 'luflic,' which means 'worthy of love,' or 'loving.' The suffix '-ly' was added to form an adjective that enhances the quality of the noun. Over the centuries, 'lovely' has evolved from its original meaning to encompass qualities of beauty, charm, and endearment. The comparative form 'lovelier' follows the rules of English grammar by modifying the base adjective to compare two subjects. The evolution of the term reflects changing attitudes towards beauty and affection in English literature and culture, with its usage often accompanied by romantic or idealistic sentiments.
