Etymology
The word 'stripy' or 'stripier' derives from the adjective 'stripe,' which originates from the Middle English word 'strype,' meaning a line or mark. This word can be traced back further to the Old French 'stripe,' which also means a line or stripe. The roots of the word can be found in the Proto-Germanic word 'strīpa', which refers to a line or a strip. Over time, the adjective form 'stripy' began to take on popularity in the 19th century to describe patterns that consist of parallel lines. The comparative form 'stripier' emerged as the need for comparison between items with varying stripe patterns became commonplace in everyday language.
