Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English hamer, from Old English hamor, from *hamar, from Proto-Germanic *hamaraz (tool with a stone head) (compare hammer, Hamer, hamer, Hammer, hammer, hammare). This is traditionally ascribed to Proto-Indo-European *h₂eḱmoros, from *h₂éḱmō (stone), but see *hamaraz for further discussion.
