Talk:Strega Nona

The text of this article seems to suggest that the author created the whole plot, not just the character. However, this story is remarkably similar to centuries-old folktales like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_Porridge. Perhaps the article needs to be corrected? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dinferno (talk • contribs) 19:02, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

"nona" is a colloquial variation of "nonna". NEVER heard this..... Maybe it could be true in some Italian dialect, but I am not aware of this. About the source: I am Italian — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.49.227.130 (talk) 09:48, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

= Nona vs Nonna =

Nona means "ninth" in Italian. What's to suggest that it is meant as misspelled "nonna" instead? Teo8976 (talk) 21:12, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
 * In Calabrian, though, "Strega" Witch and "Nona" means Grandmother. The Entry, if anything, should be changed to reflect this and read "'Grandma Witch' in Calabrian)" instead of "('Grandma Witch' in Italian, though it is actually spelled as nonna)".
