Luxembourgish
Etymology
From lb gmh huon, from lb goh huon, from lb gmw-pro *hōn, from lb gem-pro *hōną.
The expected Luxembourgish singular form is lb Hunn and hence accidentally the same as the word for “cock, rooster” (< Old High German goh hano). Hong is the regular dative singular (through velarization in an originally open syllable), which was generalized by analogy with the plural Hénger and the related word lb Hénkel chick. Cognate with de Huhn, nl hoen, nds Hohn.
