Etymology: "Snooziest" is the superlative of "snoozy," which is simply "snooze" with the suffix "-y" added, meaning "sleepy" or "drowsy." The "-y" ending is an ordinary English adjective-forming suffix, traceable back through Old English "-ig" and Proto-Germanic roots, so the ending itself is ancient even though the word it attaches to is not. The superlative "-iest" follows the usual pattern for adjectives ending in "-y," where the "y" changes to "i" before "-est." So "snoozy" becomes "snoozier" in the comparative and "snooziest" in the superlative, applied to whatever is most soporific in a given setting.
