dito

Pronunciation: /ˈdiːto/

“dito” is a German word. Its meaning in English:

adverb

  1. ditto

Etymology

From Late Middle High German ditto (15th c.), from older Italian ditto, variant of detto (past participle of dire (“to say”)). The spelling dito, possibly influenced by Venetan dito, appears in German already in the 17th century and thus apparently earlier than French dito (18th c.), though this last may have reinforced it later on.
