Etymology
From Proto-Anatolian *nu(n), derived from *nu (compare Hittite 𒉡 (nu, “now”)), from Proto-Indo-European *nu (“now”).
The origin of initial *nā- is not certain: Starke suggests it may be a pronominal stem, comparing Hittite 𒆠𒉡𒌦 (/kinun/).
Compare Ancient Greek νῦν (nûn), Proto-Slavic *nyně (e.g. Old Church Slavonic нꙑнѣ (nyně)), Lithuanian nūnaĩ (“now, today”) and Sanskrit नूनम् (nūnám, “now”).
