Etymology

The word's origin is disputed. It surfaces in Byzantine Greek as μουνίον, but no earlier source has been agreed on. Some scholars propose a link to a pre-Greek substrate word, others treat it as an expressive coinage rather than an inherited term. Because no derivation is secure, this card does not assign it a Proto-Indo-European root.
