Súp

The word "soupy" originates from the word "soup," which itself has a fascinating history. "Soup" traces back to the Old French word "soupe," meaning "soaked bread" or "bread soaked in broth." This points to the early practice of soaking bread in broth or water, creating a simple, nourishing meal. Over time, "soup" evolved to encompass a broader range of liquid dishes, and "soupy" came to describe anything having the consistency of soup, whether it was food, weather, or even a metaphorical situation.
