Etymology

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Not given etymology by STEDT (mun: "hate"), and not mentioned by Luce 1981. Is this from Proto-Sino-Tibetan *s-mun (dark), with semantic shift "dark" > "have dark feelings towards"? Note similarities to Old Chinese (OC *mɯːns, “gloomy, depressed”), right down to the departing tone.”
