Etymology

The term 'rowdyism' is derived from the word 'rowdy,' which itself originated in the mid-19th century. The word 'rowdy' is believed to come from the Scottish dialect word 'routy,' meaning 'roisterous or noisy.' The suffix '-ism' is often used in English to denote a characteristic or practice, forming the noun 'rowdyism' to describe the act or state of being rowdy. Rowdyism has been observed throughout history in various social contexts, often linked to celebrations, protests, or large gatherings where the crowd's excitement can escalate into disorderly conduct. Over time, the term has evolved to encompass broader implications regarding the social behavior of groups and their impact on public spaces.
