Etymology

*Pongo* is a rare French noun that traces back to the Latin verb *ponō* “to put”, itself derived from the earlier *ponere* “to place”. In medieval French, a nominalized form *ponō* (often via the Provençal *póngu*) was used to refer to a specific place or position, but it never entered common usage and is now considered obsolete. The word therefore reflects a direct lineage from Latin *ponere* through a regional nominalization that fell out of the standard French lexicon.
