Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From *māken (ЭССЯ) or *meh₂kos (Author?), further etymology is uncertain, possibly Mediterranean word. Morphologically equivalent to *majati (“fig. to enchant, to charm”) +‎ *-kъ (cf Bulgarian омайниче (“avens”)), however, it is uncertain if the two lemmas are semantically related.

Cognate with Ancient Greek μήκων (mḗkōn, “poppy”) (Doric μάκων (mákōn)), Old Irish meccun (“carrot, parsnip”), Irish meacan, Proto-Germanic *mōhô (“poppy”) (> Old High German māho, mago, Middle High German mage, German Mohn, Old Saxon maho).

Noun

*màkъ m [1][2][3]

  1. poppy
