Etymology[edit]
From either Spanish Sangley or directly from Hokkien, possibly:
- 常來/常来 (siâng lâi, literally “frequently comes”), as labeled in the Boxer Codex (1590), from which Mandarin 常來人/常来人 (chángláirén) referring to Sangleys originates and consistent with Francisco de Sande (1576)'s description of “Throughout these islands they call the Chinese 'Sangleyes', meaning 'a people who come and go,' on account of their habit of coming annually to these islands to trade, or, as they say there, 'the regular port'.” as per Manuel (1948)[1]
- 生理 (seng-lí, “business; livelihood”, IPA: /ɕiɪŋ³³ li⁵⁵⁴/) as in 生理人 (seng-lí-lâng, “merchant; tradesman; trafficker”), according to Go (2014-2015)[2] and Manuel (1948)[1] as “sieng-lí” recorded in Piñol (1937)
- 商旅 (siang-lí, “travelling merchant”), according to Manuel (1948)[1] & Hofileña (2011),[3] which Go (2014-2015) considers to be "a rather literal term uncommon among early Chinese in the Philippines".
- 送來/送来 (sàng lâi, literally “sent over”) or 生理人來/生理人来 (seng-lí-lâng lâi, literally “businessman comes”), according to Chan-Yap (1980). [4]
- 誰來/谁来 (siâng lâi / sâng lâi, literally “who comes”), as per Norberto Romualdez in Manuel (1948) who says that “sangley is a Spanish corruption of sang lay, signifying "who comes", an expression used by the Chinese in the Islands to greet a ship coming from China.”[1]
Pronunciation[edit]
- (Standard Tagalog) IPA(key): /saŋˈlaj/, [sɐnˈlaɪ̯]
