語源 2

From Middle English hem, hemm, in turn from 古期英語 hemm and related to Middle High German hemmen (“to hem in”), Old Norse hemja (“to hem in, restrain”). The Proto-Indo-European root gave rise also to Armenian քամել (kʿamel, “to press, wring”) and Russian ком (kom, “lump”).

The verb is from Middle English hemmen, from 古期英語 *hemman, from Proto-Germanic *hamjaną, or alternatively derived from the noun.
