"Can you dig it?" comes from Irish immigrants particularly in New York City. In the Irish language the phrase 'An dtuigeann tĂș' translates to 'do you understand'. Dtuigeann being pronounced like 'diggin' in Irish. Somehow through the years it made its way into the urban black vernacular made popular my New York based jazz musicians.
