Étymologie (Anglais)

From Middle High German swermen (“to swarm”), from Old High German swermen (“to swarm”), derived from swarm (“swarm of bees”), whence modern German Schwarm (“swarm; flock of birds”). The figurative senses developed in Early Modern German via “to deviate from the established dogma or school of thought”.
