Etymology

The word 'spottier' is derived from the adjective 'spotty,' which has its roots in the Middle English word 'spottie,' stemming from 'spot' in Old English 'spearฤ‹,' meaning 'mark' or 'stain.' The term 'spot' itself has been used in the English language since around the 13th century, referring to a small mark or stain. Over time, the suffix '-ier' was added to form the comparative, indicating a more significant characteristic of having spots. The usage of the term has evolved to encompass various contexts, including descriptions of fabric patterns, animal coats, and even metaphorically to describe uneven performance or quality in different scenarios.
