Etymology

1. Probably from Proto-Indo-European *mh₂n-ko- (“maimed in the hand”), from *méh₂-r̥ ~ *mh₂-én- (“hand”), with semantic shift "hand" > "handy" > "handicapped, having a defect of the hand". Cognates include manus and Old Norse mund (“hand”).
2. An alternate theory derives the word from Proto-Indo-European *menk- (“to lack”), comparing Lithuanian meñkas (“poor, small”) and Tocharian B mänk- (“to be deprived of, lack”). The root of these words is at times alternatively reconstructed as *men- (“small, isolated”).
