Походження

From late Middle English, borrowed from Middle French millet; from Latin milium, ultimatel

From late Middle English, borrowed from Middle French millet; from Latin milium, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *melh₂- (“to grind, crush”), see also Ancient Greek μελίνη (melínē, “millet”) and Lithuanian málnos (“millet”). Not related to مِلَّة (milla).

Borrowed from Ottoman Turkish ملت (millet), from Arabic مِلَّة (milla).
