Talk:vinagre

The etymology given is wrong, it is not directly from latin, vinagre or the other related word in european language are from the French "vinaigre", which means sour vine. (vin=vine, aigre=sour)
 * Not according to spanish etymological dictionaries. The Iberian words come directly from Latin, just like the French. --EncycloPetey 22:22, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

The attested old French is vyn eigre and is older than the Spanish form.
 * You need to provide evidence if you wish to contradict a major dictionary like the Diccionario of the Real Academia Española. Attestation of a form in Old French does not rule out Old Spanish nor Latin as the source, and your claims have no evidence to support them. --EncycloPetey 22:32, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes, you're right, I will search solid evidences. Other mistake, and for this, I have solide evidences, Sour in latin is acer, not âcre, âcre is French not latin.
 * You're wrong about the Latin. The form acer is masculine, but the noun vinum is neuter, so the neuter form of the adjective acre is used.  Please refer to the inflection table of .  Please do not edit information for languages you are not familiar with. --EncycloPetey 22:37, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
