Etymology of STUBBLIER

"Stubblier" is derived from the base word "stubble" with the addition of the suffix "-ier".

The term "stubble" originates from the Old English word "stybb" or "stybla" which referred to a short, stiff stalk or stem after the harvest. Over time, "stubble" came to specifically indicate the residual short, bristly plants left in a field after crops have been harvested.

The suffix "-ier" is an adjective-forming suffix, used to indicate the comparative form of a word, suggesting a higher degree of the quality or characteristic expressed by the base word. In the case of "stubblier", it refers to something that has more stubble or is more stubbly in nature.
