mânz¹

  • /mɨnz/

Where it comes from

Origin disputed.

* Compare Aromanian mãndzu, Megleno-Romanian mǫndz; possibly from or related and cognate to Albanian (Gheg) mâz (compare standard mëz and Old Albanian manz) through the substratum, or of Illyrian origin.

* Compare the Thracian word mezenai (“horse”) and Messapic Menzana, a horse deity.

* Compare also Italian manzo, Latin mannus and Gaulish manduos, probably ultimately from the same source.
