Etymology

The word 'sore' originates from the Old English term 'sฤr', which means painful or sore. Its roots can be traced back further to the Proto-Germanic word '*sairล', which had a similar meaning. Over the centuries, 'sore' has evolved to describe both physical and emotional states of discomfort. The comparative form 'sorer' likely developed as a natural extension of the base adjective, following the English pattern of forming comparatives by adding '-er' to shorter adjectives. The understanding of 'sore' encompasses a wide range of discomfort, including aches, pain, and irritation. Its usage has remained consistent throughout English history, signifying a fundamental human experience of pain and suffering.
