"I have never met a paedobaptist"

I need some assistance and I hope I've come to the right place.

This past Lord's day I was talking with a visiting Baptist pastor regarding the issue of baptism. And he informed me that he had never met a true paedobaptist. He went on to inform me that the Greek work for baptism contains within the word the precise mode of baptism; meaning ' to dip' or 'immerse'. And he concluded by saying that he had yet to meet a person who had immersed a baby.

Is the mode in the greek inseperably tied to the word 'baptism'?

Thank you
