Etymology
[edit]In the Records of the Grand Historian 《史記·封禪書》, a fretted zither plucked with a slender stick was attested as the form 空侯 (OC *kʰoːŋ ɡoː) during the reign of the Emperor Wu of Han [111 BCE]. It is uncertain whether the name of the later instruments (angular harp and arched harp) bearing the (orthographically normalised) name 箜篌 (kōnghóu) had inherited from the Han-era one. The name might have originated as transcription of a foreign term from the west.
Compare Sogdian [script needed] (cngryʾ /čangaryā/), [script needed] (cyngryʾ /čingaryā/), both names of this instrument in the Sogdian language, as well as Persian چنگ (čang) and Turkish çeng. (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)
