Etymology of MOST SOURPUSSED
The term "sourpussed" is derived from the combination of two words: "sour" and "puss". The word "sour" has its origins in Old English, where it was originally spelled "sūr". It is related to the Old High German word "sūr", and both words ultimately trace back to the Proto-Germanic word "*sūraz", meaning sour or acid.
The word "puss" is an informal term for "face", which is derived from the Middle English word "pus" or "pous". It has Germanic roots and is akin to the Old Norse word "púss".
When these two words are combined, they create "sourpussed", which means having a sour or displeased expression on one's face. The term "most sourpussed" simply signifies that someone possesses the most sour or grumpy facial expression possible.
