Etymology

The word 'mow' has its origins in Old English 'mลซgan', which meant to cut down. This term is related to similar words in other Germanic languages, such as Old High German 'mลhลn' and Middle Dutch 'mauwen.' Throughout its history, the term has evolved to specifically refer to the act of cutting grass or crops with a tool or machine. The transformation from 'mow' to 'mown' follows the typical pattern of English verbs that form their past participles in an irregular manner. The usage of 'mown' has grown in association with various lawn care and agricultural practices, particularly during the 20th century with advancements in technology that allowed for more efficient mowing equipment.
