Etymology
The word comes from the Arabic triliteral root ص-م-م (ṣ-m-m), whose core sense is to be firm, solid, or resolute. As a form II verbal noun (maṣdar) of ṣammama, it names the act of designing or resolving. The same root gives words for deafness and for a valve, all tied to the idea of being shut tight or firm.
