SCHOLARLY DISPUTES / 2

resolvedestablishedposition text

Is the -red in hatred the color red?

No. Middle English -rede / -reden continues Old English -ræden, a suffixal or affixoid element denoting state, condition, or quality.

resolvedestablishedposition text

Was hatred already a whole word in Old English?

No reviewed source gives an Old English whole-word ancestor. The word is documented as a Middle English formation from hate plus -rede, with a 13th-century first-known-use horizon.

CONTRARIAN TRUTHS / 1

RANK 24GRADE Aranked reveal

Hatred is medieval—and its -red means neither red nor “more.”

Middle English assembled hate with a dying native element for a state or condition. The compound is younger than its parts; below the secure Germanic hate family, even the celebrated PIE root remains a qualified and semantically difficult proposal.
