"etymology_text": "Uncertain.\nThe original toponym behind Sài Gòn, was attested earliest as 柴棍, with two phonograms whose Sino-Vietnamese readings are sài and côn respectively, in Lê Quý Đôn's Phủ biên tạp lục (撫邊雜錄 \"Miscellaneous Chronicles of the Pacified Frontier\", c. 1776), wherein Lê relates that, in 1674, Cambodian prince Ang Sor was installed as king over 高綿 (Cao Miên) and his brother Ang Nan as vice-king in 柴棍 (Sài Gòn) by Vietnamese forces.\n柴棍 also appears later in Trịnh Hoài Đức's Gia Định thành thông chí (嘉定城通志 \"Comprehensive Records about the Gia Định Citadel\", c. 1820), Nam quốc địa dư giáo khoa thư (南國地輿教科書 \"Textbook on the Geography of the Southern Country\", 1908), etc.\nAdrien Launay cites 1747 documents containing the toponyms: provincia Rai-gon (for Sài Gòn \"Saigon\"), Rai-gon thong (for *Sài Gòn thượng \"Upper Saigon\"), & Rai-gon-ha (for *Sài Gòn hạ \"Lower Saigon\").\nIt is probably a transcription of Khmer ព្រៃនគរ (prɨy nɔɔnɔkɔɔ), or Khmer ព្រៃគរ (preykôr).\nThe proposal that Sài Gòn is from non-Sino-Vietnamese reading of Chinese 堤岸 (“embankment”, SV: đê ngạn) (e.g. by Francis Garnier, Vương Hồng Sển, Cheng Zhenghong, etc.) has been critiqued as folk-etymological (e.g. by An Chi, 2016), as:\n* (1) Garnier states that the Chinese settlement Tai-ngon or Tin-gan (i.e. 堤岸 Đê Ngạn ~ Đề Ngạn) – the Chinese name for Chợ Lớn – was found in 1778, yet the underlying toponym had possibly been known to Vietnamese as early as 1674, transcribed as 柴棍, then preserved in Phủ biên tạp lục (c. 1776);\n* (2) 堤岸 has variant form 提岸, thus suggesting that both are not originals of but instead come from Sài Gòn.",

"etymology_text": "Uncertain.\nThe original toponym behind Sài Gòn, was attested earliest as 柴棍, with two phonograms whose Sino-Vietnamese readings are sài and côn respectively, in Lê Quý Đôn's Phủ biên tạp lục (撫邊雜錄 \"Miscellaneous Chronicles of the Pacified Frontier\", c. 1776), wherein Lê relates that, in 1674, Cambodian prince Ang Sor was installed as king over 高綿 (Cao Miên) and his brother Ang Nan as vice-king in 柴棍 (Sài Gòn) by Vietnamese forces.\n柴棍 also appears later in Trịnh Hoài Đức's Gia Định thành thông chí (嘉定城通志 \"Comprehensive Records about the Gia Định Citadel\", c. 1820), Nam quốc địa dư giáo khoa thư (南國地輿教科書 \"Textbook on the Geography of the Southern Country\", 1908), etc.\nAdrien Launay cites 1747 documents containing the toponyms: provincia Rai-gon (for Sài Gòn \"Saigon\"), Rai-gon thong (for *Sài Gòn thượng \"Upper Saigon\"), & Rai-gon-ha (for *Sài Gòn hạ \"Lower Saigon\").\nIt is probably a transcription of Khmer ព្រៃនគរ (prɨy nɔɔnɔkɔɔ), or Khmer ព្រៃគរ (preykôr).\nThe proposal that Sài Gòn is from non-Sino-Vietnamese reading of Chinese 堤岸 (“embankment”, SV: đê ngạn) (e.g. by Francis Garnier, Vương Hồng Sển, Cheng Zhenghong, etc.) has been critiqued as folk-etymological (e.g. by An Chi, 2016), as:\n* (1) Garnier states that the Chinese settlement Tai-ngon or Tin-gan (i.e. 堤岸 Đê Ngạn ~ Đề Ngạn) – the Chinese name for Chợ Lớn – was found in 1778, yet the underlying toponym had possibly been known to Vietnamese as early as 1674, transcribed as 柴棍, then preserved in Phủ biên tạp lục (c. 1776);\n* (2) 堤岸 has variant form 提岸, thus suggesting that both are not originals of but instead come from Sài Gòn.",
