Etymology

1. Borrowed from Middle Low German smand. There are two theories as to the origin of the Middle Low German word:
2. * Duden and some other authorities think it derives from Proto-West Germanic *smanþī (“smooth, soft”) and is thus cognate to English smooth.
3. * Jacob Grimm and Václav Machek think it derives from Slavic (whence also Schmetten and English smetana). See смета́на (smetána) for more. See: English Nouns 'smooth', English Nouns 'smetana'.
