Etymology

The word 'slobber' originates from Middle Dutch 'slobberen' meaning to dribble or spill. It has connections to Old English 'sloberian,' which means to slaver or drool. Historically, the concept of slobbering has been depicted in literature, often associated with animals, particularly canines, that tend to drool when excited or hungry. Over time, the term evolved into a more descriptive adjective 'slobbery,' reflecting its characteristics, and has taken on figurative meanings as well, describing emotional expressions that may be overly excessive. As language evolved, the superlative form 'slobberiest' emerged to describe the utmost extreme of slobbering, reinforcing the word's association with something that is excessively wet, messy, or overly sentimental.
