Etymology of NG

The word "ng" is not a word with an etymology. Instead, it is a phoneme known as an "engma". The engma (ŋ) is a nasal consonant typically used in spoken languages to represent the sound found at the end of words such as "sing" or "song". It is called "ng" because it is the combination of the letters 'n' and 'g', which produce the ŋ sound. The term "engma" is derived from the Greek letter "gamma" (γ), which also represents the sound ŋ in its uppercase form.
