Etymology
Etymology unclear. In sense “to stroll”, attested 1660s; noun sense “a stroll” attested 1828. Perhaps from earlier term meaning “to muse”, late 15th century, from  santren:, of  origin. Alternatively, from sauntrer: (mid 14th century), from  s'aventurer:, but this is considered unlikely; compare  aunter:. May be of origin, with proposed cognates being German schlendern:, Danish slentre:, Swedish slentra:, Icelandic slentr:, all meaning “to stroll“. Various fanciful folk etymologies also given.
