Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Middle English word 'grisel', meaning gray or grayish, which traces back to the Old French adjective 'gris' (gray). By the 16th century, the suffix '-ed' was added to form an adjective describing hair or fur streaked with or turned gray, later expanding to describe weather-beaten or rugged features.
