From underlying Arabicمَاهُوَشَيْء(mā huwa šayʔ) and Arabicمَاهِيَشَيْء(mā hiya šayʔ). The gender distinction was eventually lost, leaving miš, muš as interchangeable or regional variants.
Contraction of ماهوش(mahúš, mahūš, “it is not”), obtained by applying the negative circumfix ما ...ـش(mā ...-š, “not”) to pronouns like هو(hū, “he; it”). Can be traced piecewise to Arabicمَا + هُوَ + شَيْء(mā + huwa + šayʔ, literally “it is not one thing”).
