Ετυμολογία (Αγγλικός)

Κληρονομήθηκε από Μέσα Αγγλικά: hom-comyng

In summary

From Middle English hom-comyng, home komyng, home-cumyng, home-commynge, equivalent to home + coming. Probably an alteration of earlier Middle English hom-come, homkome, hame-come, ham-cume, from Old English hāmcyme (“homecoming; return”).
