Nguồn gốc từ

Etymology. Attested in the sense “to stroll” from the 1660s; noun sense “a stroll” attested 1828. Likely from earlier term meaning “to muse”, late 15th century, from late Middle English santren, of unknown origin. Competing theories exist: * From sauntrer (mid 14th century), from aventurer s'aventurer to take risks; however, this is considered unlikely by the OED. Compare aunter adventure.
