Note on Meaning
- Geographical name only: "Thạch Thang" functions exclusively as a proper noun for a place. It does not have a literal meaning as a common noun phrase in modern Vietnamese (e.g., "thạch" meaning jelly or rock, and "thang" meaning ladder or broth, do not combine to describe this ward). Its meaning is entirely tied to its identity as a location.
