moist: [14] Latin mūcidus meant ‘mouldy’ and ‘snivelling’ (it was a derivative of mūcus, source of English mucus). In Vulgar Latin it became altered to *muscidus, which is thought to have branched out in meaning to ‘wet’, and passed in this sense into Old French as moiste – whence English moist. From the 15th to the 17th centuries the derived adjective moisty ‘damp’ existed (it was revived in the 19th century). Musty [16] is thought to have originated as an alteration of it, perhaps under the influence of must ‘grape juice’.
=> mucus, musty
