Etymology
The word 'patient' derives from the Latin 'patiens,' which is the present participle of 'patior,' meaning 'to suffer' or 'to endure.' The evolution from Latin into Middle English saw 'patient' emerge with the connotation of someone who can endure pain or discomfort without complaint. The variation 'patientest' is formed by adding the superlative suffix '-est' to 'patient,' following the pattern of English adjectives. This form, although less common, serves to emphasize the extreme state of being patient, conveying the idea of not only enduring but excelling in patience compared to others. The use of superlatives in English allows for richer description of traits and can often aid in expressing more nuanced emotions or states of being in conversation and writing.
