单词 kmieni
释义

kmieni

Maltese

Etymology

Uncertain, but probably from Latin mane (early in the morning). The k- is explained by Joseph Aquilina as the preposition cum (with), as if from a Vulgar Latin phrase *cum mane (literally with the early morning).

Otherwise compare the Arabic root ك م ن (k m n) related to concealment and ambush; thus speculatively from the notion of getting up very early in order to do something in secret. Phonetically the word is quite reminiscent of dialectal Arabic كَمان (kamān, also, as well), from classical كَمَا أَنَّ (kamā ʾanna), but a semantic relation is hard to see.
