1. Pang is a noun that can refer to a sudden and sharp, often severe, feeling of physical or emotional discomfort or distress. It is commonly associated with a brief, intense sensation or spasm of pain.

Etymology of PANG

The word "pang" originated from the Old English word "pancian", which means "to have a sensation of pain or distress". This Old English word is derived from the Proto-Germanic word "pankōną", meaning "to prick" or "to pierce". The Proto-Germanic term, in turn, can be traced back to the Proto-Indo-European root word "peng", which also means "to strike" or "to pierce". Over time, the word evolved and gained its current meaning of a sudden or sharp feeling of pain or distress.
