ipa :-ɔːntə(r)[Anagrams]

[Etymology]
Etymology unclear. In sense “to stroll”, attested 1660s; noun sense “a stroll” attested 1828.[1] Perhaps from earlier term meaning “to muse”, late 15th century, from Middle English santren, of Unknown origin.[1] Alternatively, from Anglo-Norman sauntrer (mid 14th century), from French s'aventurer (“to take risks”), but this is considered unlikely;[2] compare Middle English aunter (“adventure”).[3] May be of Germanic origin, with proposed cognates being German schlendern, Danish slentre, Swedish slentra, Icelandic slentr, all meaning “to stroll“.[4] Various fanciful folk etymologies also given.[5][6]
