Etymology of WHELMING
The word "whelming" is derived from the Middle English word "whelmen", which means "to turn over" or "to overturn". This Middle English term can be traced back to the Old English word "hwelfan" or "hwelġan", which also means "to turn over". The word ultimately has its roots in the Proto-Germanic language, where we find the word "hwalfaną", meaning "to turn, roll, overthrow". Over time, the word "whelm" evolved to have the specific meaning of being submersed or engulfed, often relating to water.
