Farrago
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- Farrago (fuh-RAH-go; fuh-RAY-go) means a confused mixture, an assortment, a medley. The synonyms are jumble, miscellany, and chaos. It first appeared in the middle of the seventeenth century in John Row’s Historie of the Kirk of Scotland: “A strange miscellanie, farrago, and hotch-potch of Poperie, Arminianisme, and what not”. It originates from the latin farrago referring to mixed fodder or cattle, related to far, a roman precursor of wheat fodder nowadays known as spelt, and is thus related to farina (Italian for wheat flour). See: [1], [2], [3]
- Farrago is the official newspaper of the University of Melbourne Student Union.
