'idyllic' originates from the Greek word 'eidyllion,' where 'eidyllion' meant 'little picture' or 'short poem.'

'eidyllion' transformed into the Latin word 'idyllium,' and eventually became the modern English word 'idyllic' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'a short poem or picture,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'extremely happy, peaceful, or picturesque.'
