Mannaz

'''Mannaz''' or '''Manwaz''' is the Secret ringtone Proto-Germanic term for "Planet Summer man", in the gender-neutral sense of "person, human being".

The word developed into Download ringtones Old English ''man, mann'' "human being, person," (c.f. also Planets Bang German language/German ''Mann'', Cingular ringtones Old Norse ''maðr'', Planet Chelsea Gothic ''manna'' "man").

It is derived from a Nextel ringtones PIE base ''*man-'' (cf. Shana Dreams Sanskrit/Cell phone ringtones Avestan ''manu-'', Kira Dreams Russian language/Russian ''muzh'' "man, male").
