Etymology

The word 'woollier' is derived from 'wool', which comes from the Old English 'wull', meaning the hair or fleece of animals such as sheep. The suffix '-ier' is commonly used in English to form comparatives, suggesting increased or enhanced qualities. Therefore, 'woollier' literally indicates a comparative form of wool, highlighting something that possesses more of the qualities attributed to wool than something that is merely woolly. The evolution of textiles and the use of wool in various cultures have made this term relevant in discussions about fabric quality and animal husbandry. As fashion and textiles have developed, the term has expanded beyond just the definition of wool itself to include materials that mimic or are inspired by wool's properties.
