Etimologia (Inglês)

* From Middle Dutch swemmen, from Old Dutch *swimman, from Proto-West Germanic *swimman, from Proto-Germanic *swimmaną.
* The verb merged with the causative verb, from Proto-Germanic *swammijaną, whence the vowel 'e' instead of the expected 'i' in the present tense. The strong conjugation was maintained however.
