Uitgespreek as (IPA)

/ma.naː.ra/

Noun of place from the root ن و ر (n w r), relating to "light" and "fire". Cognate with Aramaic מְנָרְתָא (mənārəṯā), Hebrew מְנוֹרָה (mənōrā), Ugaritic 𐎎𐎐𐎗𐎚 (mnrt). Maybe there is a contamination with Ancient Greek μιλιάριον (miliárion, “miles indicator”) if the word means landmark.
