Etymology of DEEPENED

The word "deepened" is derived from the adjective "deep", which originated from the Old English word "deop". The Old English term "deop" eventually evolved into the Middle English "depe" and later to the current form "deep". The suffix "-en" is added to the adjective "deep" to form the verb "deepen", which in turn gives the past participle form "deepened". The addition of the suffix "-en" is a common way in English to transform an adjective into a verb.
