Origin of the word dewy

The word "dewy" has a beautiful etymology. It originated in the 14th century from the Old English word "dǣw", which means "dew" or "morning dew". This word is derived from the Proto-Germanic word "*daiziz", which is also the source of the Modern German word "Taue", meaning "dew". The word "dewy" initially referred to something covered in or moistened with dew, such as a leaf or a flower. Over time, the meaning of the word expanded to describe something that has a soft, smooth, and gentle appearance, reminiscent of the refreshing and revitalizing effects of morning dew. Today, "dewy" is used to describe not only the appearance of an object or person but also the atmosphere or mood created by something.
