Boy that's interesting, I've never thought about it. I'm an American who grew up in Germany but have an Italian and German family who grew up in the projects of NY (the Love Canal, Niagara Falls). My grandmother (german) and grandfather (italian) married and their families constantly fought and pretty much hated one another.
I remember them fighting (mostly arguing) and the men going "Ey ey, lets keep things copacetic." (They might have said capasetti)
I always thought it was a pretty and a smart sounding word. I guess not.
