Etymology

The word 'thankful' originates from the Middle English 'thakful,' which can be traced back to Old English 'þancfull,' a combination of 'þanc,' meaning 'thought' or 'gratitude,' and 'full,' meaning 'full of.' The term has evolved over centuries, adapting to shifts in language and culture. The addition of the superlative suffix '-est' forms 'thankfullest,' emphasizing the utmost level of gratitude. This morphological change reflects the tendency in English to create superlatives for adjectives, even for those that are less frequently used.
