Etymology

Lua error: Module:checkparams:215: The template Template:PIE root does not use the parameter(s): 

2=h₃emh₃

Please see Module:checkparams for help with this warning.

(deprecated template usage) Attestations with the meaning “power, consciousness” support a connection with Sanskrit अम (áma-, “strength”), Avestan 𐬇𐬨𐬀 (ə̄ma, “attacking power, strength, potence”)[1]; From Proto-Indo-European *h₃emh₃- (“take hold of; be strong”). This root has been connected with Ancient Greek ὄμνυμι (ómnumi, “swear”), Sanskrit अमन्ति (amánti, “take hold of, swear”), and most likely Latin amō (“love”).[2]

Must be separated from ãmalioti (“talk nonsense”), of onomatopoeic origin. See am̃sėti (“yap, yelp”).
