Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English ago, agon (passed), past participle of agon (to depart, escape, pass), from Old English āgān (to go away, pass away, go forth, come to pass), from Proto-Germanic *uz- (out), *gāną (to go), equivalent to a- + gone, and a- go. Cognate with ergehen. Compare also āgangan, 𐌿𐍃𐌲𐌰𐌲𐌲𐌰𐌽.
