мангуна
Bulgarian
[edit]Alternative forms
[edit]- магу́на (magúna)
Etymology
[edit]Borrowed from Byzantine Greek μαγγοῦνα (mangoûna), μαγκοῦνα (mankoûna), an obscure word, also found mingled with Latin cicūta as μαγγοῦτα (mangoûta), μαγκοῦτα (mankoûta), and in Albanian magunë (“poison hemlock (Conium maculatum)”). A derivation from μᾱ́κων (mā́kōn, “poppy”) has been suggested, as well as a distortion of Proto-Slavic *omęgъ (“poison hemlock”).
