Etimologia (Anglès)

Manllevat de Middle Low German: smand

Cognat amb anglès: smooth

Cognat amb anglès: smetana

In summary

Borrowed from Middle Low German smand. There are two theories as to the origin of the Middle Low German word:
* Duden and some other authorities think it derives from Proto-West Germanic *smanþī (“smooth, soft”) and is thus cognate to English smooth.
* Jacob Grimm and Václav Machek think it derives from Slavic (whence also Schmetten and English smetana). See смета́на (smetána) for more.
