Etymology

The term 'smudgy' originates from the word 'smudge', which itself can be traced back to the early 15th century. 'Smudge' comes from the Middle English word 'smudgen', meaning to smear or to make a mark by rubbing. This word likely has roots in the Old English word 'smygan', which means to smear, or possibly from a Scandinavian origin, indicating a similar action. As language evolved, the addition of the suffix '-y', common in English adjectives, helped create the informal adjective 'smudgy'. Over time, to form the comparative 'smudgier', the '-er' suffix was added, following the common English conventions for comparative adjectives. This word particularly found its place in artistic and everyday contexts, where it describes something that has greater amounts of smudge, suggesting a progression or increase in uncleanliness or lack of definition.
