Etymology
PIE word *pénkʷe From Middle English cynk, from Middle French cinq, from Latin cīnque, variant of quīnque. The archaic spelling cinq is taken from modern French cinq, whereas the standard spelling is perhaps influenced by Italian cinque or a misspelling of the French. The variant pronunciation /sæŋk/ is based on Modern French. Doublet of fin (“five currency units”), finnuf, five, pimp (“five”), ponzu, punch (“beverage”), and sengi (“currency”); related to Pompeii.
