• Could be simply an action noun of *nu?, for *nuimen, from *nu? + -men, thus meaning "a nodding with the head", "a nod", "command", "will" (as n?tus), with the particular meaning of "the divine will", "the will or power of the gods", "divine sway".

Alternative forms

Etymology

Somewhat disputed. Probably from the root of *r?g? +? -men, attested in ?r?g?, r?ct? (“I belch”) and rugi? (“I roar, rumble, bray”), from Proto-Indo-European *h?rewg-, *h?rew?- (“to belch”). Cognate with Ancient Greek ????????? (ereúgomai, “I spew out, discharge, belch, bellow”), Old Armenian ????? (orcam, “I vomit, am nauseated”), Proto-Germanic *reukan? (“to smoke, emit vapor”) (modern English reek).
Alternatively from Proto-Indo-European *sréwmn?, from the root *srew- (“to flow”). See also flu? and fl?men, sometimes hypothesized as from the same source. (Can this⁽⁺⁾ etymology be sourced?)
