If this is identical with Violino piccolo shouldn't the two articles be merged? Will put up a merge sort-of-thing if so... Schissel-nonLop! 17:28, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

My guess is that the word kit is related to the Greek word κιθάρα, which, although nowadays means guitar, is still a somewhat related instrument. Compare the etymologies of the words cithara, guitar, and zither. Just a thought.— Strabismus ( talk) 05:42, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Pochette redirects to this page. Do an image websearch for "pochette" though and you'll see only images of small handbags or shoulder bags. It seems that modern use of the word "pochette" more often refers to a type of handbag than to a type of violin. Request to make Pochette a disambiguation page between Kit violin and Handbag instead of only redirecting to Kit violin. - 213.197.7.61 ( talk) 14:04, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
only the actual dimensions are not given (nor deductible from the text). and even theres a lot said throughout the article about some pocket, by the end of the article it is still not clear whether a leather bag (pouch) or an actual pocket of the common sense (aka a pocket on my trousers) is being referred to. the picture also carries no sign of dimensions. it could be anything from say 2 inches to two feet. uis this article a stub? 89.134.199.32 ( talk) 19:13, 18 December 2019 (UTC).
The Greek word κιθάρα means guitar. Citterne is τσιτέρνα. Unless, and it's possible, the meaning of κιθάρα has changed to meaning guitar from meaning citterne. The Real Walrus ( talk) 10:11, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
