canguecangn.

/kaŋ/

Forms: Also 1700s congo, 1900s kang.

Etymology: In French cangue, < Portuguese cango, connected with canga ‘yoke for oxen, porter's yoke’. Prof. Legge thinks that the notion that the Portuguese name represents or was suggested by a Chinese word is baseless. The Chinese name is kiá, in modern Pekinese chiá, in Canton dialect ka, explained as ‘one stick added to another, as a flail, a cangue or wooden collar.’ The kang-giai, modern Mandarin k'ing-hiai, ch'ing-hiai ‘neck-fetter’, cited from the Kwang-yun (a Dict. of 1009) is not the name, but merely one of the explanations of the character kiá.

A broad heavy wooden frame or board worn round the neck like a kind of portable pillory as a punishment in China.
