Argh! Quid commentationi meae fit? Such are the dangers of Wikipedia. --[[Usor:Iustinus|Iustinus]] 18:39, 27 Decembris 2006 (UTC)
:Well, why was it at distillatio if it is more properly destillatio? Curious, and is it about distillation or distilled bevarages? I should have looked at the edit history, but as I said...curious...--[[Usor:Ioshus Rocchio|Ioshus]] <small><sup>[[Disputatio Usoris:Ioshus Rocchio|(disp)]]</sup></small> 19:06, 27 Decembris 2006 (UTC)
::It was about the distillation of alcohol, and of course the drinks distilled therefrom. This has an interesting history, with many sources in Latin over the ages. The word is traditionally ''distillatio'' but this is really a corruption of ''destillatio'' "dripping down." Still, as the topic is largely post-Roman, I figured the later form was appropriate. --[[Usor:Iustinus|Iustinus]] 22:03, 27 Decembris 2006 (UTC)
