Etymology 2

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “Semantically, probably "pond, lake" > "flat land next to a stream or body of water" > the folks that live there. This is just speculation though, it's difficult to pinpoint the old semantics just from placenames.”

Cognate with Muong Bi lảng (“big shallow pond”).

This word is rarely, if ever, used as a common noun in isolation in modern Vietnamese anymore. However, it is a common element in place names (Láng Tròn, Láng Dài, Láng Biển, Láng Thượng, etc.).

Noun

láng • (浪, 朗, 廊, 𣼽)

  1. (now only in compounds) neighborhood (residential area)
