Leng is a proper name in French used to refer to a specific person.
Did you know?
- Because leng is not a standard French name, a French speaker might treat it as an acronym rather than a person's name. They may attempt to pronounce each letter individually: L-E-N-G.
- The sound of leng is very close to the French word langue, which means 'tongue' or 'language'.
- If used in a text, a French speaker might assume leng is a typo for lent, the masculine form of the adjective 'slow'.
