Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From Proto-Indo-European *h₂enǵʰ- (“to constrict, tighten”). (Originally *h₂m̥ǵʰ-?) Cognate with Hittite [script needed] (ḫamank, “to tie, to betroth”) < *h₂m-(o)n-ǵʰ-, Ancient Greek ἄγχω (ánkhō, “to strangle, to squeeze”), Latin angere (“to strangle, to choke”), Old High German engi (“narrow”). Derksen says the initial *v- is "unclear"; Vasmer attributes it to contamination with *verzti (“to tie, to squeeze”), while Chernykh sees contamination with *viti (“to twist”).
