Word origin

The word 'miserable' has its origins in Middle English, coming from the Old French word 'miserable', which in turn is derived from the Latin word 'miserabilis' meaning 'pitiable'. Over time, the word evolved to encompass feelings of extreme unhappiness or discomfort, as well as conditions or qualities that cause such feelings.
