### Etymology 1

From a Southeast Asian language, perhaps Malay mangga or a Tai word (Wei, 2000). The second character 果 (guǒ, “fruit”) is a phono-semantic matching or a literal translation.
First attested in 廣東通志初稿 [1535] (Yang, 1987):
    芒果，種傳外國，實大如鵝子狀，生則酸，熟則甜，惟新會、香山有之。 [Classical Chinese, trad.]芒果，种传外国，实大如鹅子状，生则酸，熟则甜，惟新会、香山有之。 [Classical Chinese, simp.]Mángguǒ, zhǒng chuán wàiguó, shí dà rú ézǐ zhuàng, shēng zé suān, shú zé tián, wéi Xīnhuì, Xiāngshān yǒu zhī. [Pinyin](please add an English translation of this usage example)
