A quick internet search says {dixit}//{dikshit(ar)} is Hindi. It's cool to learn it signifies "giver of knowledge" and was a name for the Brahmin caste. Seeing as Sanskrit and Latin are related it makes sense there is a connection between the meanings of {dixit}. Learning this just makes it doubly ironic, b/c it's like Dixit should be the one to know being a "giver of knowledge" ;) and yet how could he be right when it's only his point of view ;) --maybe it is not so amusing but I find these are bon mots.
