Portal talk:Spain/Did you know

It is not true that Paella comes from that. Paella means "frying pan" in Catalan/Valencian, and it comes from latin "patella". In fact, valencian people, where the dish comes from, say "arròs a la paella", which means "rice in the frying pan", clearly showing that the dish was called after the recipient, a clear case of metonimia.

Possibly the dish has arabic origins, but clearly the word not. See any ethymology romanistic reference for that.

The final "Did you know" is very evident
The person who doesn't know that Madrid is the capital of Spain, ¡is analphabet! Miguel303xm 19:47, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
