Nice The word nice was borrowed into Middle English from Old French in the late 1200s, and its original meaning at the time in both languages was ‘silly’. Over time, its meaning changed in various ways, to ‘delicate’ (in the 1400s), then ‘careful’ (1500s), and eventually ‘pleasant’ (1700s). SV= Old French DV= Middle English
Silly The word, 'silly', is a common example of pejoration. In Old and Middle English, the term was used to mean that someone was happy, or spiritually blessed. However, over the centuries, this changed and by the 1500s, the word became associated with acting foolishly - as it is today! SV= Greek DV= Old and Middle English
