Origin of 'tranquilest'

The word 'tranquil' comes from the Latin 'tranquillus', which means 'calm' or 'quiet'. This Latin term is derived from the verbs 'tranquillare', meaning 'to calm', and 'tranquere', meaning 'to be still'. The adjective 'tranquil' entered the English language in the 15th century, and as English evolved, the superlative form 'tranquilest' was created to indicate the highest degree of tranquility. The use of 'tranquil' and its variations gained popularity, particularly in literature and poetry, as writers sought to convey themes of peace and serenity. Over time, 'tranquilest' has come to describe not only physical spaces but also emotional states, encompassing a wide array of contexts from nature to personal reflections.
