Nguồn gốc từ
From fog + -y, originally in the sense "covered with tall grass; marshy; thick". It is not clear whether fog (mist) is a back-formation from foggy (covered with tall, obscuring grass) or has a separate Germanic origin, and hence whether foggy (covered with tall grass) and foggy (obscured by mist) represent one word or two. See fog ("mist"; "tall grass") for more.
