Origins
Univerbation of manū (“in/by the hand”) + teneō (“to hold”), one of the meanings being "to hold fast". Appears to underlie numerous Western Romance forms, but unknown in southern varieties and not attested in this use until the 11th century, therefore likely to be a calque of the Romance forms themselves.
