Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English *swarf, *swerf, from Old English ġeswearf, ġesweorf (iron filings; rust) and/or Old Norse svarf (metallic dust), both from Proto-Germanic *swarbą (that which is rubbed off; shavings), from Proto-Germanic *swerbaną (to mop, wipe; to rub off); see further at swerve. The word is cognate to sweorfan.
