Pronunciation edit

Etymology 1 edit

From Middle English bannen (to summon; to banish; to curse), partly from Old English bannan (to summon, command, proclaim, call out), from Proto-West Germanic *bannan; and partly from Old Norse banna (to prohibit; to curse), both from Proto-Germanic *bannaną (to proclaim, to order; to summon; to ban; to curse, forbid), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰh₂-new-ti ~ bʰh₂-n̥w-énti, innovative nasal-infixed zero-grade athematic present of *bʰeh₂- (to say).

Cognate with Dutch bannen (to ban, exile, discard), German bannen (to exile, to exorcise, captivate, excommunicate), Swedish banna (to ban, scold), Vedic Sanskrit भनति (bhánati), Armenian բան (ban) and perhaps Albanian banoj (to reside, dwell). See also banal, abandon.
