Etymology
From Proto-Indo-European *moyn-éye-ti (“to intend, give opinion”), cognate with Proto-Slavic *měniti (“to think”), a causative formation to a root *meyn-. Cognate with Old Irish mían (“wish; desire”). Ultimately possibly from Proto-Indo-European *mey- (“to change, exchange”). Equivalent to *mainō (“mind, opinion”) + *-janą. See: Proto-Slavic '
*měniti'.
