Best Answer

The Latin word 'minutus' is credited with the origins of 'menu' as a word in the English language. The original meaning in Latin was 'minute, something small'. It passed into French as the masculine gender noun 'menu'. From there it was borrowed, in the same form as the French, by English language speakers.
