Etymology

**Etymology of “han” (interjection)** The interjection *han* is a relic of Old French, where it appears as *han* or *hann*. It is thought to derive from the Latin exclamation *ha*/*aha*, the classic “wow” used for surprise, pain or effort. The form survived mainly in rural and regional dialects, preserving the old onomatopoeic sound of the original Latin interjection.
