Reference for Nedarim 102:7

הא לא קשיא דלמא פלטיה דג גדול ובלעיה דג קטן אלא (שמות ז, כא) והדגה אשר ביאור מתה קטנים מתו גדולים לא מתו אלא דגה משמע גדולים ומשמע קטנים ובנדרים הלך אחר לשון בני אדם:

But is it not written, Then Jonah prayed onto the Lord his God out of the fish's [dagah] belly?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Ibid. 2, shewing that dagah too refers to large fish. ');"><sup>10</sup></span> — This is no difficulty: perhaps he was vomited forth by the large fish and swallowed again by a smaller one. But [what of the verse] And the fish [dagah] that was in the river died?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Ex. VII, 21. ');"><sup>11</sup></span>
