[edit] "Etymology" in an encyclopedic context

"Etymology" in an encyclopedic context would refer to the sub-field of linguistics known as etymology, and in this case how it is applied to Spanish. This article is actually about vocabulary, so I've moved it.

[edit] Percentages

Are you sure of these percentages 90% from Latin and 8% from Arabic? And where is Greek?? A great part of Spanish vocabulary is from Greek, after Arabic, so I think it may be just 80% from Latin. Unfortunately I could not find any source with accurate info about this, though I'm very interested in it. —Zoltan —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.209.220.195 (talk) 20:29, 25 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Merge?

Should this article be merged into History of the Spanish language (see the Linguistics section)? FilipeS 13:38, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
