accurate translation of \'sting\'

[jackmcauliffe]

Any more help on the real meaning of Fodio would also be helpful

You've selected a verb, Jack. Fodio means "I dig" (as in digging a ditch) -- the infinitive, "to dig", is fodere. From that basic meaning, it also comes to mean prodding or goading, which is maybe why you thought it was linked with stinging. :?

The reason I thought it ment 'sting' was that I looked up latin translations for sting and it came up... I clearly don't know anything about the language, Which is where all of you come in!!
