Etimoloxía

From Middle High German manec, from Old High German manag. The -ch is due to the traditional fricative pronunciation of non-initial -g- in Central German dialects. The spelling became predominant in Early New High German, possibly reinforced by the similar clusters in welch and solch. The original form has remained in mannigfach, manniglich, mannigfaltig, etc. Cognate with Dutch menig, English many, Polish mnogi.
