Saddest

/ˈsædɪst/ adjective

Definition

The superlative form of sad, meaning feeling the most unhappy, melancholy, or sorrowful.

Etymology

From Old English 'sæd' meaning 'satisfied' or 'heavy,' which evolved to mean emotionally heavy or downcast by the Middle Ages. The suffix '-est' creates the superlative form, as in 'fastest' or 'brightest.'

Kelly Says

The original meaning of 'sad' was 'satiated' or 'full,' and linguists think the emotional meaning developed because a weighed-down, heavy feeling accompanies deep sadness—the word literally describes that physical heaviness.
