English meaning : be great; to meet with; as peng 2 "be going peng-peng (sound of drum)"

Russian meaning[s]: 1) встретиться; натолкнуться; 2) происходить, случаться; 3) когда бы ни...; всякий раз, как...; 4) большой, обширный; [péng] бум-бум (звукоподражание барабанному бою)

Comments: Cf. 封 *poŋ. Viet. phồng is a colloquial reading (and, since it means 'to bulge, to swell', quite probably expressive and not borrowed from Chin.); standard Sino-Viet. is phùng (having all the Chinese meanings, but also 'to swell, bulge'). The character already in Shijing has a second reading *bhōŋ, MC buŋ 'sound of drum' (for *bh cf. Fuzhou phuŋ²).
