Etymology
The word 'yellow' originates from the Old English 'geolu', which traces back to the Proto-Germanic 'gelwaz' and the Proto-Indo-European root 'gสฒel-', meaning 'to shine' or 'to gleam'. Throughout history, the meaning of yellow has remained closely associated with brightness and warmth. The comparative 'yellower' is formed by adding the comparative suffix to the base 'yellow', indicating a greater intensity of the color. The use of yellow to describe objects dates back to ancient cultures, where it symbolized gold and riches. In art and design, yellow has been regarded as a vibrant, cheerful color, often evoking feelings of happiness and positivity. Its importance in various cultures and contexts has influenced its usage in language, leading to terms like 'yellower' to express gradations of color.
