tangan.¹

Brit.

/ˈtaŋɡə/, U.S.

/ˈtæŋɡə/

Forms: 1500s– tanga; 1500s–1600s tango, 1600s tang, tanghe, 1700s tange, 1800s tungah, tanja, tank, tanka; 1900s tamka, tangka, tenga.

Etymology: apparently < Portuguese tanga, < ṭaṅka in various Indian vernaculars < Sanskrit ṭaṅka, a weight = 4 māshās (beans), a coin; also, ṭaṅkaka, a stamped coin.Under the Mogul sovereigns, the silver ṭaṅka was the chief silver coin, the same as the silver dinar or later rupee; mention is also made in 14th cent. of a ṭaṅka or dinar of gold, worth 10 silver dinars. About 1500 there were black or copper ṭaṅkas, of which 20 went to the old silver ṭaṅka. In the end of the 16th century, the tanga was a money of account, and afterwards a copper coin, at Goa, where it is still in use: see quot. 1886 at sense a. The name also survives, in derived forms, in most of the Indian vernaculars, as that of a copper coin, and in Urdū, in its Sanskrit form and sense, as that of a weight. The identity of the Turkī tanga, tonga with the Sanskrit word has been disputed, and the word attributed to a Chaghatai Turkī origin.

East India.

A name (originally of a weight) given in India, Iran (formerly Persia), and Turkestan to various coins (or moneys of account), the value of which varied greatly at different times and places; ‘it is still applied in certain places to a copper, in others to a silver coin’ ( N.E.D.).

a. In Goa, and on the Malabar coast: see quots.
