The word "come" traces back to Old English cuman, from Proto-Germanic kwemaną ("to come, arrive"), which itself derives from Proto-Indo-European gʷem- ("to step, go"). This root is shared across many Indo-European languages (e.g., Latin venire, Greek bainein). Over time, cuman simplified into "come," retaining its core meaning of movement toward a destination. The word's stability reflects its fundamental role in expressing basic motion.
