Etymology
Variation of mummer.
Uncertain. Perhaps from an alteration of mammer; or from Middle Dutch mimmeren, mīmeren (“to ponder”); or from Old English mymerian, mimorian (“to keep in mind, remember”). See also mammer. Compare also Saterland Frisian miemerje (“to ponder sadly, think deeply”), Danish mimre and Norwegian mimre (“to reminisce”).
