Man, mind, to remain, to remind: they all originate from the same intertwined proto-indo-european roots "men" (thinking) and "mon/man" (human). Edit: just found this etymological trail for insan: >From Proto-Semitic *ʔināš- (“man, person”). Has the form of a verbal noun , as if from أَنِسَ (ʔanisa, “to sense (visually or auditorily)”).
