Ditto is an English form of the Italian word 'detto' which means 'said'. When we say ditto, or use  we mean what we want to say is already said. Source(s): I checked this source in the Collins dictionary. Apparently this form came into English in the 17th century.
WEST MICHIGAN â The full moon in the month of August is known as the âSturgeon Moon.â The fishing tribes are given credit for the naming of this Moon, since sturgeon, a large fish of the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water, were most readily caught during this month.
Tonightâs Sturgeon moon is more frequently known by the other moniker â but as youâre probably aware, the moon wonât appear to be blue despite the name. Christian Today explains the reason for the connection between Sturgeon moons or blue moons and frequency, explaining: âTonightâs blue moon is an extra summer moon, which is the third moon of four in the season that started on the June solstice.
