Wop
 |
Wop is a pejorative slur used to describe Italians, or people descended from Italians.[1]
Etymology
According to Merriam-Webster its first known use was in the United States in 1908.[2] The dictionary is unambiguous that it originates from a southern Italian dialect term guappo, meaning thug, derived from the Spanish term guapo, meaning handsome, via dialectical French, meaning ruffian or pimp.[3] It also has roots in the Latin vappa, meaning wine gone flat.[2]
For the 1st time ever two Italians fought it out
for a Major Championship!
Really cool stuff if you were watching the US Open.
The 33 year old Champion then annonced her retirement.
Flavia Pennetta. I am sure you never heard of her before...
Congratulations from The Pea Blog Flavia!
