Etymology 1
editFrom Proto-Italic *tenos, from Proto-Indo-European *ténos, from *ten- (“to stretch, draw”). Cognate with Sanskrit तनस् (tánas), Ancient Greek *τένος (*ténos) (attested in ἀτενής (atenḗs)), also with German Dohne which has the same meaning. More at teneō (“hold, grasp”).[1]

Etymology 2
editFrom Proto-Italic *tenos, from Proto-Indo-European *ten- (“to stretch, draw”). The specific etymology is debated: De Vaan suggests that it is merely a petrified accusative of extent of the s-stem *tenos and rejects Meiser's suggestion that it stems from the Proto-Indo-European perfect participle *tn̥-wós.[1][2]
