Etymology
1. From Middle Low German toge, toch, from Old Saxon *tugi, from Proto-West Germanic *tugi. Cognate with Dutch teug, German Zug, Old English tyge.
2. Swedes would make no difference between tåg in vikingatåg (“viking raid”), korståg (“crusade”), fälttåg, krigståg, and plundringståg (“pillage raid”), but in Danish they use different words, indicating different etymologies:
3. * Based on tog (“train, campaign”): korstog, felttog
4. * Based on togt (“raid, journey”): vikingetogt, krigstogt, plyndringstogt (“pillage raid”) See: Dutch Nouns '
teug', German Nouns '
Zug', Old English Nouns '
tyge'.
