Etymologies appear identical

[edit]

Etymology 1 and 2 look identical. Should be combined? Facts707 04:08, 22 April 2010 (UTC)Reply

The only difference is the "Possibly from Malay kampong, kampung (“‘group of buildings, village’”)." at the end of ety 1. This was why I didn't combine them when I did the bit of cleanup yesterday. I'm not sure that it actually fits though - perhaps we should take it to the tearoom? Thryduulf 08:02, 22 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
