saero; !ivi is a fusion of li and ivi; vivorio, for avorio, analogy 
vivere; prigione (illit. and peasant), in the sense of pigione 
(<pe(n)sione-), a visible confusion of ideas; the Sienese 
pannecchio, for pennecchio, “quantita di lana . . . che si mette 
sulla rocca per filare,” by analogy with pannocchia (from

ginete, might have been popularly or ignorantly connected with 
Gianni.
