sagaing の語源・成り立ち Etymology
Sagaingは英語がビルマ語စစ်ကိုင်းを借りた地名語で、英語内部で分けられる接頭辞・語根はほぼない。つまり語の意味は部品ではなく土地名そのものにあり、「サガインという土地」をそのまま指す借用語と考えると理解しやすい。関連語はSagaing Region, Sagaing Hills。
Sagaing is the conventional English representation of the Burmese place-name စစ်ကိုင်း. It entered English through transliteration rather than through English word formation, so its spelling should not be divided into saga and -ing. The name is applied both to the city and to the larger administrative region associated with it. Variant historical romanizations may occur because Burmese sounds can be represented in the Latin alphabet in different ways, but Sagaing is the established English spelling.
