Ετυμολογία (Αγγλικός)

Κληρονομήθηκε από Μέσα Άνω Γερμανικά: siben slāfære

In summary

From Middle High German siben slāfære, referring to the Seven Sleepers of Ephesus. Univerbation since the 15th century. Use for “one who sleeps a lot” since the 17th century. The biological sense since the 18th century because of the animal's hibernation, which may last more than seven months.
