The word "drowsy" has a long history in the English language, dating back to the Old English period. The Old English verb "drūsian" meant "to be heavy or drowsy." This verb is related to the Proto-Germanic root "drausjat," which means "to fall" or "to weaken."
The Middle English form of "drowsy" was "drosi." This form was first recorded in the 13th century. The word "drowsy" has been used in English continuously since that time.
