    Etymology

    [ 'ol-m&-"nak, 'al- ] (noun.) 14th century. Old French almanach, from Medieval Latin almanachus, from Andalusian Arabic (almanak, “almanac, calendar”) > or Arabic المناخ (al-manāx, “climate”), from Late Ancient Greek αλμενιχιακά (“calendar”), probably ultimately of Coptic origin. Possibly the central syllable -man- is cognate with moon and month, or else was influenced by Proto-Indo-European *mens- (“moon, month”) *me- (to measure).
