Etymology
In summary
From a metathesis of Middle French pourmener, Old French pourmener, pormener (based on numerous verbs beginning with the prefix pro-), itself from pour- and mener; alternatively and less likely corresponds to a Vulgar Latin *prōmināre (“to drive forward”), from prō (“forward”) + minō (“to drive”).
