To summarize and not lengthen the story, the answer is no, the word has nothing to do with the gringo phrase. And by the way, I love cocol\u00f3n, that&#39;s an extra motivation \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer is in the old book of PHONETIC BARBARISM OF ECUADOR, by GUSTAVO LEMOS. An authentic Ecuadorian etymological bible. The book was published in 1922, so the probability that the word originated from the small North American colony that arrived 10 years earlier to work on the oil from the Santa Elena peninsula is in practice ZERO. Worse still, as they say, of the gringos who came to the air base in WWII, since that was in the 1940s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1200\"
