For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.The basic word contained in the opening four letters was originally a term of racial abuse, so the nastily critical aspect of the whole word may possibly have developed from that. There is also a suggestion that it may be an amalgamation of minger, monster and another abusive word which also ends in the letters u, n and t.
