I'm not sure about etymology: "Bàndol" is a Catalan word, not a Spanish word. In Spanish you say "bando" without the last "l". Perhaps it needs and intermediate word or perhaps the origin of word is Catalan, not Spanish.--Santi Gomà (talk) 11:21, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

RFV Spanish etymology - bandol doesn't appear to be a Spanish word. -WF


 * This was in the time of Old Spanish (1500s), which I am not an expert in. I think bandol was an Old Catalan word (modern ), which includes the Catalan diminutive suffix (Modern Spanish ). That in turn from Old Spanish . I would change the etymology to something like this:
 * From earlier form bandollier, from Middle French bandoulliere, from Old French bandouliere, from Old Spanish, "guerrilla", from Catalan  (feminine derivative of , “member of a band of men”), from  "faction, party" (diminutive suffix ), from Old Spanish  (faction, party). —Stephen (Talk) 02:12, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Closed, this isn't a valid RFV, but I changed the etymology anyway. &mdash; surjection &lang;??&rang; 15:23, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
