Etimologija

Unknown. Popular theories (folk etymology) include its coming from German bei Gott (“by God”), because, when taking an oath, some men, once they said "by God", would supposedly aimed at the superior lip with the index finger, symbolising forming the cross with the fingers and kissing it. Compare Portuguese bigode.
