How is that? The roots of a word and its current meaning may differ greatly. You can take mosquito as an example, wich originated at "small fly" but now it means "the blood sucker insect". Consider for example the word &

That green stuff between parenthesis is the etymological origin and not a definition. Again, i stated that earlier. They share origin, that doesn't make then mean the same. I see mosco is definitely used, and rae dictionary has its ent

Mosca has no male form, it would be a female mosca, or a male mosca. That's probably the origin of the mistake with the article. While the gatito example is ok, there is no mosco for mosca.
