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)
- to come; to move nearer, to arrive
- 1973, Ted Gärdestad (lyrics and music), “Come Give Me Love”, in Ted:
- Kom ge mig världen. Kom ge mig fred. Kom sänk ditt huvud. Och lägg dig ned. Kom ge mig kroppen. Kom ge mig allt som du har. Och jag ska stanna kvar.
- Come give me the world. Come give me peace. Come lower your head. And lie down [lay yourself down]. Come give me the body. Come give me everything that you have. And I will stay.
- Låt den rätte komma in.
- Let the right one come in.

- Om du inte vågar komma till sjukhuset så behöver du ju inte komma på sjukhuset heller, som jag alltid brukar säga.

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”)
