Why is Hongdong called Hongdong?

Hongtong County, Shanxi Province is a famous historical county in China, and it is also the spiritual home of hundreds of millions of Chinese children. The Sophora japonica in Hongdong has entrusted many descendants of immigrants from all over the country and overseas with their deep affection for their homeland. "Hongdong" is undoubtedly a famous brand in China's history and culture, but what is its origin and meaning?

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, Hongtong County belonged to the ancient Yang State. The surname Yang in our country originated here. After the unification of Qin Dynasty, Yang County was established here. Hundreds of years later, in the Eastern Wei Dynasty, due to the need of war, the Eastern Wei regime strategically set up a military fortress here, which was called "Hongdong Garrison" or "Hongdong Town". The history books describe the situation of the Northern Zhou army attacking here: "Hongdong is close at hand, and it is dangerous to tell it repeatedly." The former site of the Hongdong garrison is roughly in the area of Shangjiluo Village in Hongdong County today.

At the end of Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan set off for Taiyuan and went south to Huoyi. When he passed Yang County, because he hated the emperor's surname, he named it "Hongdong County" after the famous local Hongdong tree.

It turns out that the word "Hongdong" means to describe the flood in ancient Chinese, and it is sometimes written as "Hongdong". For example, "The Original Road of Huainanzi": "(Water) oscillates in disorder and is in harmony with heaven and earth." The military fortress guarded by Hongdong was built on the bank of Fenhe River, facing the surging Fenhe River, so it was named "Hongdong" to show the military strength of the soldiers in the Eastern Wei Dynasty.

We all know that there is a big pagoda tree called Zugen in Hongtong.

Many foreigners will pronounce Hong Dong as Hó ngdê ng, which is actually a wrong pronunciation.

The correct pronunciation should be hóngtóng.

Regarding the place name of Hongdong, according to local records, "there are ancient caves in Hongya in the north of the county, and the county is named after the cave." According to legend, in ancient times, there was a fairy in the south of this place, named after living in a place called "Hongya Ancient Cave".

In fact, this statement is not reliable.

Because the ancient cave here reads d ò ng, not the current pronunciation hóngtóng.

It has also been interpreted that the place name Hongdong originated from Xianbei language, but it is actually a Chinese translation of the word "Huotun" in Tungusic language family. Horton means "city".

This statement is suspected of being over-interpreted. Even though Hongdong was influenced by Xianbei people in Wei and Jin Dynasties, the place name, the most basic cultural element, has a strong inheritance, and it is impossible to directly change it and lose all the previous common names.

The place name Hongdong is still related to the geographical environment here.

Green means Fenhe River.

Hongtong is near Fenhe River. "Hong" is used to describe a flood, and "Dong" is a torrent of water. Together, "Hongdong" is the rough Fenhe River here.

How to pronounce the "hole" that describes the rapid flow of water here?

In terms of water synchronization, that is to say, the "hole" indicating the rapidity of water flow is the same as tóng. The following "Tu Nong Qie" is a special pronunciation expression in ancient times. Putting the initial t of "Tu" and the vowel ong of "Nong" together is the pronunciation of tóng.

To sum up, the place name Hongdong is closely related to the local special river environment.
