Talk:taccheggio

source for etymology?

@Linguoboy Where did you source your etymology from? Treccani [1] derives this from taccheggiare, not the other way around (and doesn't know where taccheggiare comes from). This makes sense to me as nouns in -eggio are normally derived from verbs in -eggiare. Internazionale [2] has no etym for taccheggio but derives taccheggiare possibly from tacca, not tacco (but gives taccheggio as originating in 1931, earlier than taccheggiare in 1942, which is strange).
