Menis and Manyu — Cosmic Force in a Word

“‘Even a single word can be a gateway to inherited mythology. Examining the word menis, Muellner uncovers some of the fundamental springs of the Iliad’s action. Semantically, the closest parallel to menis is its Vedic cognate manyu, which, like menis, denotes a primordial cosmic force associated with the thunderbolt and the lord of the pantheon.‘”

Scholarly authority (Muellner) confirming that M-N- words carry primordial cosmic force. Menis (Greek wrath) and manyu (Vedic fury) are cognates with M-N- at their core.
