Etymology
The word 'prosy' derives from 'prose,' which comes from the Latin 'prosa' meaning 'straightforward.' The Latin term is related to the idea of discourse that is direct and ordinary, without the embellishments of verse. The suffix '-ier' is a common comparative ending in English, indicating a higher degree of the quality described. This term began to appear in literary discussions as writers went through different movements, seeking to define the effectiveness and aesthetic of various styles of writing. Over time, 'prosier' has come to describe not just literary styles but also a broader approach to communication that may lack creativity or flair.
