The word "leafy" stems from the Old English word "leaf," meaning "leaf of a tree." This word itself is thought to have originated from the Proto-Germanic word "laubaz," which shared the same meaning. The suffix "-y" is a common English suffix that indicates "full of" or "characterized by." Therefore, "leafy" literally translates to "full of leaves" or "having many leaves."
