Definition
Prone to drunkenness; habitually drunk or intoxicated.
Etymology
From Latin 'ebriosus' (given to drinking, drunken), derived from 'ebrius' (drunk). The suffix '-ose' indicates a tendency or quality, similar to 'verbose' or 'grandiose.'
Kelly Says
Using '-ose' endings, Romans created 'ebriosus' to describe someone with a chronic drinking problem—the medical-sounding suffix makes it sound almost like a clinical diagnosis.
