The explanation of this name presented unexpected difficulties on account of the various
modes of writing and pronouncing it.
Our brother Adolphe, when in loco, was repeatedly told that the first syllable should be
taken as zan, a thick soup of paste made of parched grain, a term, which is also very
frequently used for food in general;¹ this explanation well agrees, at least comparatively
speaking, with the fertility of the valleys of Zánkhar.
