I hear って everywhere, and in the case of っていう I heard it was a shortening of
という. But in the case of things like questions, where does って come from, and
what exactly does it mean?

question
etymology particle-って
Origins and meanings of って?
It is a contraction on と, simple at that. It may be used with an omission (eg.
くださいって＝くださいといいました。）but I am afraid you just have to accept it as this and get
on with getting familiar with when it is used.
