Etymology

The word 'pimpled' is derived from the noun 'pimple', which itself originates from the Middle English term 'pimpel', used to describe a small swelling or nodule on the skin. This term can be traced further back to Old French 'pimpel', a diminutive of 'pimpe', meaning a small bump or pimple. The root of these words lies in the Latin 'pimpina', which refers to a small bump, and may relate to the Greek word 'pimpilos', indicating something that swells or protrudes. The evolution of the term typically encompasses the notion of minor growths or irritations on the skin, with the adjective 'pimpled' being used to describe skin that is noticeably affected by such ailments.
