Summer is the warmest season of the year, following spring and before autumn, often associated with long days, holidays, and outdoor activities.
From Old English 'sumor', from Proto‑Germanic '*sumaraz', related to words in many European languages for the warm season. The root is ancient and tied to ideas of warmth and growing.
In many cultures, the whole year emotionally orbits around summer—school breaks, harvests, festivals, and travel. The word is so old that when you say 'summer', you’re echoing sounds people used thousands of years ago.
