You can add the Hebrew "SHAMENET" which means the same. Very interesting.

Dear all,
Schmetten (Austrian German), Schmand/Schmant (German German) and Smetana
(Slavic languages) have their etymological roots in the germanic word
smeitan, what means smear, spread. Schmetten was substituted more or less in
Austrian German by Sauerrahm - but itīs still in use in rural regions.
Hutsche, for Schaukel is still in use in southern Austria (especially Styria
and Carinthia).
Best, Benjamin
