Word origin

The word 'snug' has its origins in the late 15th century, deriving from the Scandinavian word 'snuggr', meaning 'comfortable' or 'safe'. Its usage began to expand in the English language throughout the 16th and 17th centuries. The addition of the suffix '-er' reflects a comparative form, indicating an increased degree of snugness. Over time, 'snugger' has evolved to describe not only clothing but also any item or space that provides a higher level of warmth, comfort, or security. This evolution highlights a cultural appreciation for comfort in both clothing and living environments, particularly in colder climates.
