Talk:bocca

Additional derived terms
Boccaccio and Boccaccino are attested as names.

Probable meanings (I understand, but am not fluent in Italian, so I discuss it here instead of adding to article directly) could be
 * loud-mouth,
 * somebody that talks much and loudly,
 * somebody that talks much witout much substance,
 * somebody that talks - or writes - convincingly,
 * also a baby with strong voice while crying (suits very well for deminutive boccaccino).

Context of use could be humorous, derisive, appreciative or any combination (a writer could have intent to express more than one meaning with the same word at once, like humorously and appreciatively with the same word).

Boccaccino di Cellino (see reference) is reported to be Giovanni Boccaccio's father - but I have no further context (how each name was chosen or assigned, and by whom, in particular case, or customs in general) from that era. --Marjan Tomki SI (talk) 10:31, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
