different between lung vs pung

English

Etymology

From Middle English lunge, longe, from Old English lungen, from Proto-Germanic *lunganj?, an enlargement of *lungô (“the light organ, lung”), from Proto-Indo-European *leng??- (“not heavy, agile, nimble”); compare *h?leng??-, whence ultimately also light. Cognate with West Frisian long, Dutch long, German Lunge, Danish lunge, Norwegian lunge, Swedish lunga, Icelandic lunga, and also Russian ?????? (ljóxkoje) (lung), Ancient Greek ??????? (elaphrós, “light in weight”) and perhaps Albanian lungë (“blister, bulge”). Compare Latin levis and Old English l?oht (Modern English light). See also lights (“lungs”). Superseded non-native Middle English pomoun (“lung”), borrowed from Old French poumon, pomon (“lung”).
