French
Etymology
From Middle French fange, from Old French fange (“mud, addle, mire”), from Gothic 𐍆𐌰𐌽𐌲𐌰 (fanga, “mud, addle, mire”), from Proto-Germanic *fangō (“wetness, moisture”), from Proto-Indo-European *penk- (“mud, rot, filth”). Cognate with Italian fango (“mud, sludge”) (from Germanic), German feucht (“moist, damp”), Dutch vocht (“moisture, humidity”), Old English fūht (“moist, damp”).
Alternative etymology derives the Old French word from Frankish *fani, *fanja (“moor, swamp, mire”), from Proto-Germanic *fanją (“clay, mud, marsh”), from Proto-Indo-European *pan- (“mud, slush, morass”), related to Old High German fenni (“stagnant water, swamp, bog”), Old English fenn (“swamp, bog”). See fen.
