Etymology
The word 'trashy' originated in the early 20th century and is derived from the noun 'trash', which refers primarily to refuse or waste material. Initially, 'trash' related to discarded items like litter or debris and was often used connotatively to describe things that had little value. Over time, 'trashy' began to denote more than just material waste. It took on broader connotations associated with cultural artifacts, particularly those that were considered lowbrow or lacking elegance. The comparative form, 'trashier,' likely developed as people sought to describe anything that surpassed the threshold of being merely unrefined to something distinctly of poor taste or low quality in comparison to another. This transition reflects larger societal judgments about what constitutes quality, taste, and worth in art and life.
