Etymology of UNHANDSOMER
The word "unhandsomer" is formed by adding the prefix "un-" to the adjective "handsomer". To understand its etymology, we need to examine the origin of the base word "handsome".
The adjective "handsome" derives from the Old English word "handsom", which meant "easy to handle" or "convenient". It consisted of two components: "hand" (referring to the grasping organ) and "-som" (a suffix used to denote the quality or condition of something).
Over time, the meaning of "handsome" evolved to describe someone or something that is pleasing or attractive in appearance. The suffix "-er" is often added to comparatives in English to indicate a higher degree, thus resulting in the formation of "handsomer" to describe something more attractive than another.
