Sweatworking
Sweatworking (/swɛtˈwɜːrkɪŋ/) is a modern term that combines the concepts of networking and exercise into a single activity. The term is a portmanteau of 'sweat' and 'networking', indicating the dual nature of the activity.
Etymology
The term 'sweatworking' is a relatively recent addition to the English language, first appearing in the early 21st century. It is a combination of the words 'sweat' and 'networking'. 'Sweat' is derived from the Old English 'swat', meaning to perspire, while 'networking' comes from the English 'net' and 'work', referring to the act of interacting with others to exchange information and develop professional or social contacts.
