Etymology
The word comes from the Semitic root ز-ع-ج (z-ʿ-j), which carries the sense of disturbing or shaking someone out of a settled state. Classical Arabic built a family of verbs on it: زَعَجَ (to alarm or startle), أَزْعَجَ (to upset or disturb someone), and اِنْزَعَجَ (to become disturbed, the reflexive Form VII). مُنْزَعِج is simply the active participle of that last verb, so it names the person now in the state of being disturbed. Arabic is a Semitic language, so it has no Indo-European root.
