Etymology

From Proto-Indo-Iranian *mayš- (“to blink, wink”), from Proto-Indo-European *meyg⁽ʷ⁾ʰ- (“to blink, cover (the eyes)”) (which has implicitly been linked with Proto-Indo-European *h₃meygʰ- (“mist; to drizzle”), see Proto-Slavic *meigā́ˀtei (“to blink”) for more). Cognate with Persian مژه (može, “eyelash”), Lithuanian miẽgas (“sleep”), Proto-Slavic *měžiti (“to close one's eyes”).[1][2][3][4]
