Etymology edit
From Old Hungarian mogyër.
- The first element (mogy-) is likely from Proto-Ugric *mańćɜ (“man, person”),[1][2] also found in the name of the Mansi (ма̄ньси (mānʹsi), маньсь (manʹsʹ)). This may be an Indo-Iranian borrowing (compare Sanskrit मनुष्य (manuṣyá)) or may derive from Proto-Uralic *mënɜ- (“to say”).
- The second element, -ër (“man”), retained in ember (“man”) and férj (“husband”), is cognate with Eastern Mari эрге (erge, “son, boy”) and Finnish yrkö (“man”) from Proto-Finnic *ülkä (“groom”). All from Proto-Uralic *irkä or *ürkä (“man, son, boy”).
