Etymology
Borrowed from Philippine Spanish lanzones, plural of lanzón, from Malay langsat. The spelling was patterned after Spanish lanzones, plural of Spanish lanzón (“short, thick spear”), possibly because the borrowed term from Malay was heard as a variant of Spanish lanza (“lance”) and the leaves of the tree somehow resemble a lance. Compare Thai ลางสาด (laang-sàat), Javanese ꦭꦁꦱꦼꦧ꧀ (langseb), and Mandarin 榔色 (láng sè) and Hokkien 蘭撒 / 兰撒 (lân-sat).
