In modern Mongolian, the title became Khaan with the 'g' sound becoming almost silent or non-existent. The common western rendering as Great Khan or Grand Khan, notably in the case of the Mongol Empire, is technically not correct, but it has been well established by long-standing convention and is reasonably clear in suggesting paramount status.

Also the word "Hun" or "Khun" in Caucasian Avars language means "To Hold" "To Belong". The Hun word for leader or king "Kagan" in Caucasian Avar language pronounced "Q'uaKhun" translated as "To Whom The Power Belongs" or "The Power Holder". The capital city of Caucasian Avars Khunzakh is translated "The city of Huns"
