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).
