Definition
Having the simple, plain, or rustic qualities of the countryside rather than the city; rural in style or manner.
Etymology
From 'country' + '-fied' (made into). This adjective was formed in the 1600s to describe people or things that had adopted rural characteristics, sometimes with a slight tone of unsophistication.
Kelly Says
Jane Austen used 'countrified' as a slight insult in her novels to describe ladies-in-waiting who lacked urban polish, showing how 18th-century society valued city manners over rural simplicity.
