Where this word comes from
From Old Norse tengja, from Proto-Germanic *tangija- (“to pinch together”), directly cognate with Old English tengan (“to press, hasten”). The Proto-Germanic is from Proto-Indo-European *donḱ-éye-, a form also inherited by Sanskrit दँशयति (dam̐śayati, “to make bite”). This is a causative to the root Proto-Indo-European *denḱ- (“to bite”), cf. Proto-Germanic *tingan- (“to press upon”). Related to töng (“pincers”).
