In summary

From Old Galician-Portuguese mãy, nasalization of earlier *mae < *made, child-speech forms of madre, from Latin mātrem, the accusative of māter (“mother”). Doublet of madre. Compare pai (“father”), which underwent a similar phonetic reduction from its root (Latin pater), but was not nasalized. Cognate with Galician mai, nai, Mirandese, Leonese, and Aragonese mai and Asturian ma.
