sperm: sperm: [14] Sperm is etymologically something that is ‘sown’, like ‘seed’. The word comes, via late Latin sperma, from Greek spérma ‘seed’. This was a derivative of the same base as produced English diaspora, sporadic, and spore, and it may ultimately be related to English spray.
=> diaspora, sporadic, spore
sperm (n.): "male seminal fluid," late 14c., probably from Old French esperme "seed, sperm" (13c.) and directly from Late Latin sperma "seed, semen," from Greek sperma "the seed of plants, also of animals," literally "that which is sown," from speirein "to sow, scatter," from PIE *sper-mn-, from root *sper- (4) "to strew" (see sprout (v.)).
