Talk:biacca

Etymology
Is this not rather a cognate of, given the meaning? —CodeCat 19:39, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Good thought, but no; piombo is the primary word for lead and biacca is a white paint which happens to derive chemically from it. The semantic sense is closer, and also the /c/ is explained naturally.  Isomorphyc (talk) 19:56, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
