Hawaiian
[edit]Pronunciation
[edit]Etymology 1
[edit]From Proto-Polynesian *laŋo “houseflies, bees, wasps” by metathesis (compare with Maori ngaro and rango, Tongan lango, Samoan lago) from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *laŋaw (compare with Malay langau “horsefly”, Tagalog langaw “fly”).[1][2]
Sense of bee is extension, compare also with connection between Maori ngaro and ngaro huruhuru for similar semantic overlap.
