This doesn't look like it should have two different etymologies. 109.155.171.21 21:53, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Good point. Jamesjiao → ^{T ◊ C} 22:16, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

So they really changed it to say it comes from Spanish when in reality it's Italian? What' 88.157.95.85 09:32, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

So they are changing history to attack Hispanics again? Is this the real etymology https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Talk:dago#c-88.157.95.85-20240518093200-109.155.171.21-2011-12-05T21:53:00.000Z 88.157.95.85 09:32, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Just looking to combine the two etymologies. Point raised by an anon on the entry's talkpage. Any volunteers? Jamesjiao → ^{T ◊ C} 22:18, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Volunteers for what? If someone can confirm that the two senses are indeed from the one etymology we have listed, I'll be glad to combine them. But I can't supply that confirmation myself.​—msh210℠ (talk) 00:39, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

No reputable source disagreed.
