Nguồn gốc từ

h₁epiine-pro From Middle English bisemen (to beseem)bysemen, from be-, bi- + semen. Semen is derived from Old Norse sœma (to conform to; to befit, beseem), from Proto-Germanic *sōmijaną (to fit; to unite), from Proto-Indo-European *sem- (one; whole). The English word is analysable as be- + seem.
