This is not correct, no one would ever say fagio. The way it is actually used by virtually everyone is mafagio. – Ricci «T | C» 10:41, 19 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Actually, my Swahili dictionary and kamusi.org both list fagio as the only plural. Based on Google Books results, I think both are valid, but it seems like mafagio is the newer form created due to the convergence of two etymologically distinct noun classes into the modern u class. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 07:15, 7 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
