Stonehenge
Stonehenge (disambiguation)

Inherited from Middle English Stonhenge, from ston (“stone”) + henge (“hinge”) or hengen ("hanging", but only attested as "imprisonment"). More at Stonehenge on Wikipedia.Wikipedia
The failure of /ɛnd͡ʒ/ to regularly raise to /ɪnd͡ʒ/, as in hinge, singe < Middle English henge, sengen, is probably due to the influence of the local dialect; compare the forms /ɛnd͡ʒ/, /sɛnd͡ʒ/ "hinge, singe" attested for the early 20th-century dialect of Pewsey, Wiltshire, approximately 18.5 kilometres (11.5 miles) from Stonehenge.

Huaxi

Borrowed from the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin 華西 /华西.

The paper's commentator points out that the 200 peasant households of Kiangsu Province's Huahsi production brigade did this by building up a thriving collective economy, simultaneously expanding agriculture, side-line occupations and rural industry.[…]
Anyone who sincerely wants the four modernizations should take the Huahsi production brigade as an example and work to improve the material and cultural life of the commune members on the basis of a continuous growth in production, as the Huahsi party branch has done. Fifteen years ago, five years after the communes were set up, Huahsi was still a backward area.

[1978 December 8 [1978 December 6], “The Kind of Socialism the Peasants Like”, in Daily Report: People's Republic of China, volume I, number 237, Foreign Broadcast Information Service, sourced from Peking NCNA, →ISSN, →OCLC, People's Republic of China: National Affairs, page E 33:

In Jiangsu, local government-run businesses expanded faster than anywhere, at one point employing almost a third of the population. Huaxi kept ahead of the pack thanks to Wu's knack of reading the political tea leaves. In 1992, he watched a TV broadcast of Deng Xiaoping's famous pro-entrepreneurial speech during a tour of southern China. Immediately, according to his biographers, he foresaw a surge of economic activity and ordered village officials to borrow every yuan they could lay their hands on to buy up aluminum and other raw materials.

2010, Jonathan Watts, “Gross Domestic Pollution”, in When a Billion Chinese Jump: How China Will Save Mankind- or Destroy It, Scribner, →ISBN, →OCLC, →OL, page 103:

That this half-billion-dollar edifice is a good 40-minute drive from a city of any size is part of the plan. For though not many foreigners have heard of Huaxi, Chinese far and wide know it as the socialist collective that works — the village where public ownership of the means of production has not just made everyone equal, but rich, too.

2011 July 11, Michael Wines, “Sharing the Wealth and Living Large in a Tiny Chinese Village”, in The New York Times, →ISSN, →OCLC, archived from the original on 2011-07-12, Asia Pacific:

The newly inaugurated skyscraper tower of Huaxi village is seen in Huaxi village, Jiangsu province, October 7, 2011. Huaxi, also known as China's richest village, celebrates its 50th anniversary with the inauguration of a massive 328-meters (1,076 feet) high skyscraper that screams for attention from its lowly skyline.

2011 October 10, Carlos Barria, “China's richest village”, in Reuters, archived from the original on 2023-03-11, Pictures, page 1/30:

In March 1994, Wu Renbao, Party branch secretary of Huaxi Village of Jiangyin County, Jiangsu, national model laborer, excellent Party member, and a representative of the National People's Congress, responded to the call for "mutual hekp between the east and the west as well as common well-bing" and implemented the "87 Poverty Relief Crucial Program."

2015, Xiang Wu, Contemporary Chinese Rural Reform, Springer, →DOI, →ISBN, →ISSN, →LCCN, →OCLC, page 189:

"The village of Huaxi, Jiangyin City, Jiangsu Province was once a small village, but now it has become a well-off village of the civilized nation, Fuyu Village. Every family has a villa, and they drive a car- - a small village, and a big change!
