HANZOUND TM
noun; blending and clipping
The sound system at Hanszen College, Rice University. adj. The presentation of a production using the Hanszen sound system. The capitalized "Z" serves to separate the two constituent parts of the word. Also, only "-en" was clipped off of "Hanszen". Also, "s" and "z" are similar in sound (differ only in voicing) which allows for the particular type of blending and clipping in this new word.
Etymology : combination of "Hanszen" College and "sound".
