Etymology
The word 'saner' is derived from the adjective 'sane,' which comes from the Latin word 'sanus,' meaning 'healthy' or 'sound.' Originally, 'sane' pertained to physical health but evolved to encompass mental well-being, particularly during the 14th century. The transition from the Latin root to Old French and then to Middle English saw the word adopt its current form. Over time, 'sane' began to describe not merely the absence of mental illness but also the presence of sound judgment and rational thought. The comparative 'saner' emerged as a way to distinguish varying levels of rationality or mental clarity, reflecting society's growing awareness of mental health issues and the nuances of human psychology.
