Proto-MSA

*γayg- - man (Kogan 2015:543)

The origin is obscure. Undoubtedly connected with the verbal root *γyg ‘to give birth’, but it is hard to say whether the verb – in any case, similarly obscure from the etymological point of view – is denominative or vice versa (cf. Müller 1909b:351‒354) (Kogan 2015:543)
