Yeah they are. They're from latin

From bing

In English, the word “pup” refers to a young dog. It can also denote the young of certain other animals, such as seals or rats12.

As for Serbian, the translation for “pup” is not provided in the search results. However, if you’re referring to the English word “pup” being used in Serbian, it would still refer to a young dog, as English words are often used in other languages without translation, especially for commonly known terms. If you’re looking for a specific Serbian term for a young dog, it would be “štene” in Latin script or “штене” in Cyrillic script.
So you really believe Amun and amen are related even though you've been shown otherwise?

I'm done.

Those words are not related but to be fair both Slavic and Latin are Indo-European languages

So I still don't believe it because it's just wikipedia. I thought I got contradictory information from the Bing AI. We need someone else to settle this.

So why do you believe amen couldn't have evolved from amun?

It did.
Where is this argued? Wikipedia notes:

Popular among some theosophists, proponents of Afrocentric theories of history, and adherents of esoteric Christianity is the conjecture that amen is a derivative of the name of the Egyptian god Amun (which is sometimes also spelled Amen). Some adherents of Eastern religions believe that amen shares roots with the Hindu Sanskrit word Aum. Such external etymologies are not included in standard etymological reference works. The Hebrew word, as noted above, starts with aleph, while the Egyptian name begins with a yodh. [source]​

I meant the pronunciation of the name Yamanu (what we know as Amun) became something like Amun or Amen later.

he forms of the word Amun, Amen (Christain and Jewish "amen") and Ameen (Islamic Amen), are said at the end of prayers. Is there any significance to this?
Judaism does not "praise" amen. I know of no reason to think the term has anything whatsoever to do with amun.

There is no connection between the Egyptian word Amun, referring to the deity, and the Hebrew word Amein.

In Hinduism, Aum forms the beginning and end of prayers.

Aum, Amen, Ameen, Amun, could there be a common origin of these words !
