Etymology 2
Appears to be a relatively recent innovation. In mainstream Japanese, this prefix is used as an intensifier. In the Kansai region, the meaning has further developed to convey more negative overtones.[1][2]
The ultimate derivation is unclear. This may be an extension of the noun 度 (do, “degree, extent”).
