Etimología (Inglés)

Heredado de inglés medio: intenden

In summary

From Middle English intenden, entenden (“direct (one’s) attention towards”), borrowed from Old French entendre, from Latin intendō, intendere. See also intensive. Doublet of entendre.
Largely displaced native Old English myntan (“to mean, intend; to think, suppose”), whence dialectical mint.
