Etymology

The term 'sward' originates from the Old English word 'sweard', meaning a covering of turf or grass. This word relates to the Proto-Germanic root '*swardō', which implies a layer of vegetation. With roots going back to the early medieval period, 'sward' has undergone semantic shifts, but has remained connected with grassy coverings. The evolution of its usage reflects changes in agricultural practices and landscaping traditions over centuries. As lawns and picturesque landscapes became more common among the upper classes in England, the verb form 'sward' began to see greater use, particularly in context with garden landscaping.
