Yún (surname)
Yun () is a Chinese surname, listed 41st in the Song dynasty classic text '' Hundred Family Surnames''. The Chinese surname Yun (云) may be confused with the common Korean surname Yun (윤) which instead derives from the Chinese character 尹 (yǐn), meaning "governor". Origin Very few outside cognates of Old Chinese * ��ən ( Baxter- Sagart) exist. Starostin compares it with Mizo ''vân'' (“sky, the skies, heaven”) and Karbi ''inghun'' (“cloud”). It could possibly derive from a root meaning “to revolve”. Compare 運 (OC * ��ər-s, “to move”), 回 (OC * ��ˤəj, “to whirl, to circle”) (Schuessler, 2007). OC * ��ˤəj bears striking similarities to Ket ''-ga'' (Proto-Yenisseian *gaj).

English-language Singers From Hong Kong
English is a West Germanic language of the Indo-European language family, with its earliest forms spoken by the inhabitants of early medieval England. It is named after the Angles, one of the ancient Germanic peoples that migrated to the island of Great Britain. Existing on a dialect continuum with Scots, and then closest related to the Low Saxon and Frisian languages, English is genealogically West Germanic. However, its vocabulary is also distinctively influenced by dialects of France (about 29% of Modern English words) and Latin (also about 29%), plus some grammar and a small amount of core vocabulary influenced by Old Norse (a North Germanic language). Speakers of English are called Anglophones. The earliest forms of English, collectively known as Old English, evolved from a group of West Germanic (Ingvaeonic) dialects brought to Great Britain by Anglo-Saxon settlers in the 5th century and further mutated by Norse-speaking Viking settlers starting in the 8th and 9 ...

The genre began in the 1970s and became associated with Hong Kong popular music from the middle of the decade.
