+ '''mānō''' (present infinitive mānāre, perfect active mānāvī, supine mānātum); first conjugation^(Wiktionary)
+
+ ==Etymology==
+ Its origin is uncertain.^(de Vaan 2008)^(OLD 2012) De Vaan suggests a verb from a noun *māno- “wetness”, comparable with [[sga|móin|t=bog, peat]], [[cy|mawn|t=peat]] and [[br|man|t=moss]], from a Celtic *māni-, but no good root is available.^(de Vaan 2008)^(Wiktionary) Lewis and Short connected it with [[madeō]] “to be wet”.^(Lewis & Short 1879)
+
+ ==Earliest recorded meaning==
+ De Vaan dates it from Ennius.^(de Vaan 2008) Köbler dates Ennius 204–169 BC.^(Köbler 2010)
+
+ ==Semantic evolution==
+ It meant to flow, run or trickle, of liquids, and to leak away; with an ablative it was to drip with something, as Cicero's statue of Hercules that ran with sweat, a portent.^(OLD 2012) Transitively it meant to shed, as Ovid's marble that still sheds tears.^(OLD 2012) Of sounds, light and abstract things it meant to spread, as Cicero says an evil spread through Italy, and to be derived, to spring from a source.^(OLD 2012)
+
+ Döderlein says ''fluere'' is flowing as motion, while ''mānāre'' is flowing as the giving out of liquid.^(Döderlein 1874) Its compound [[ēmānō]] gave [[en|emanate]] in the 1680s.^(Etymonline)
