Etymology 1

From Old Swedish koma, from Old Norse koma, from Proto-Germanic *kwemaną, from Proto-Indo-European *gʷem-. The sense "to orgasm" is probably a semantic loan from English come.

Verb

komma (present kommer, preterite kom, supine kommit, imperative kom)

  1. to come; to move nearer, to arrive
    Låt den rätte komma in.
    Let the right one come in.
    Tiden är kommen.
    The time has come.
  2. (slang) to orgasm
    • 2021 March 12, Kristoffer Appelquist, episode 7, in Svenska nyheter [Swedish news], SVT1, 2:14:
      Om du inte vågar komma till sjukhuset så behöver du ju inte komma på sjukhuset heller, som jag alltid brukar säga.
      If you don't dare come to the hospital, you obviously don't need to come at the hospital either, as I tend to say.
Usage notes
  • Used in the present tense together with a main verb in the infinitive (with infinitive mark) to express the future tense (mainly the "will future"). The meaning matches English "will come to" (except in tone), expressing an inevitability. Compare ska.
    att tala (to speak)kommer att tala (will (come to) speak)
