Old French[edit]

Etymology[edit]

Borrowed from Medieval Latin almanachus, from Andalusian Arabic الْمَنَاخ (al-manāḵ, almanac, calendar), from Arabic الْمُنَاخ (al-munāḵ, climate) or Late Ancient Greek ἀλμενιχιακά (almenikhiaká, calendar), perhaps of Coptic origin. The middle syllable -man- may be influenced by Proto-Indo-European *mḗh₁n̥s (moon, month).

Noun[edit]
