Etymology 3
Resemblance to Vietnamese sông – which is from Proto-Vietic *k-roːŋ – is coincidental. Because:
- In the early 11th century CE 瀧 (MC sraewng) (Baxter) already possessed retroflex fricative initial (as indicated by pronunciation 所江切 in Guangyun ); meanwhile,
- Nôm transcriptions in the 12th-century Phật thuyết đại báo phụ mẫu ân trọng kinh (佛說大報父母恩重經) demonstrate that Old Vietnamese then still retained clusters */Cr-/, which would not become a retroflex fricative ancestral to Modern Vietnamese ‹s-› /ʂ ~ s/ until much later.
