Dicotín dicotán (Ricotín ricotán)

Dicotín dicotán

Moshe Cabilio (Sarajevo, Bosnia)


A children’s game: one child lowers his head, hides his face and closes his eyes, while another one puts several fingers behind his back and asks: “How many fingers do you have on you?” If the first child does not guess correctly, he gets beaten. Several verses are obscure or incomprehensible, as is common in children’s games. A very similar text is used in Spain today for the same game.
