    Этимология

    () Ancient Greek, due to Aristotle|Aristotle]], in Nicomachean Ethics, (I.1098a18): :One swallow does not make a summer, nor does one day; and so too one day, or a short time, does not make a man blessed and happy. Based on The Spendthrift and the Swallow, a fable by Aesop|Aesop]]: in Europe, the return of (migratory) swallows heralds summers, but in the fable one arrives on a fluke warm day in winter.
