Odasi cannot be the inventor
[edit]Odasi cannot be "the inventor" and the Maccaronea cannot be "one of the earliest examples" of macaronic verse, if in the page Macaronic_language we are giving examples from 2 and even 3 centuries earlier. --GuillemTalk]] 06:46, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
- Per the cited source, "[La] Macaronea di Tifi Odasi racconta di una burla perpetrata dai goliardici membri della macaronea ecta nei confronti d’uno speziale". My (possibly poor) translation: "Tifi Odasi's Macaronea recounts a hoax perpetrated by members of the University of Macaronea against a spice merchant." There is no claim that this was the first macaronic verse; indeed the source names many other examples from around the same time. I've removed the claim. Cnilep (talk) 03:03, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
