Etymology
From Proto-Indo-European *(s)tenh₂- (“to thunder”), replacing the likely earlier form tonere (“thunder”) and related to tonitrus (“thunder”), Old Norse Þórr (“Thor”), English thunder. PIE root likely related to Proto-Indo-European *(s)ten- (“to sigh, groan”), Ancient Greek στένω (sténō, “to moan, sigh, groan”), German stöhnen (“to groan, moan”), Russian стена́ть (stenátʹ, “to moan, groan”).
Different root and not demonstrably related to Proto-Indo-European *ten- (“stretch”), whence Ancient Greek τείνω (teínō, “to stretch”), τόνος (tónos, “chord, tone, tension”) and (with an extension) Latin tendere (“to stretch”). Unrelated to Latin tonus (“stretching, tone”), a borrowing from Ancient Greek.
