 * Whence cometh this word ? — JohnC5 13:50, 30 March 2015 (UTC)


 * From the title page of the “Nomenclator” of Johann Jacob Hofmann’s 1698 . — I.S.M.E.T.A. 19:11, 30 March 2015 (UTC)


 * So, without evidence of a direct ancestor form in AG, I'm more inclined to say that mixoglossia and μιξόγλωττος were separate coinages based on analogy (idioglossia and for respective examples) rather than cognates. — JohnC5 23:02, 30 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Sounds good; I agree. Shall we list as a cf. here? — I.S.M.E.T.A. 19:00, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
