Etymology

Borrowed from: * Norwegian Nynorsk sæter (obsolete spelling), seter, and Norwegian Bokmål seter, from Old Norse sætr, setr (“dairy lands, mountain pastures; residence, seat; setting (of the sun)”); and * Swedish säter (“mountain pastures”); all from Proto-Germanic *sitjaną (“to sit”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *sed- (“to sit”). The English word is a doublet of sit.
