[edit]Etymology
[edit]From French anges (“angels”). In French, the plural form anges is commonly preceded by a determiner- such as aux, les or mes- whose final s or x is pronounced /z/ before vowels (and is otherwise silent). As a result, anges was reanalyzed in Haitian Creole as beginning with /z/.
