Etymology of PUDDER

The word "pudder" is of Old English origin and can be traced back to the Middle English word "pother" or "poter". "Pother" referred to the act of moving about in a confused or hurried manner, often accompanied by a commotion or fuss. Over time, the word evolved and the "o" sound was replaced with a "u", resulting in "pudder". The term is still used today to describe a state of confusion or disorder.
