Etymology

The word 'mow' comes from the Old English 'mฤwan,' which means to cut down or to harvest. Its roots can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word '*mฤ“wลnฤ…', which also conveyed the meaning of cutting or mowing. The evolution of its meaning has been influenced by agricultural practices throughout history, particularly the cutting of grass and grain. Over the centuries, 'mow' has retained its association with cutting, while the past tense 'mowed' has become commonly used in English speaking, especially in the context of yard care and gardening. The practice of mowing became particularly significant with the rise of mechanized lawnmowers in the 19th century, revolutionizing how lawns and fields were maintained.
