Crowbar = Piede di Porco.

Day 286 of My Italian Learning Journal*

_____________________

Last night's post was about the wrecking bar, like the one in the picture at right. As I learn Italian, I often go to HiNative.com for help. There I requested some help with a few translations, and the one for "wrecking bar" is "piede di porco," which is Italian for "pig's foot." Very colorful.

Ascolta Questo:

• Sto usando un palanchino su un progetto.
  I am using a wrecking bar (crowbar) on a project.

• Su HiNative.com ho chiesto aiuto con le traduzioni dall'inglese all'italiano.
  On HiNative.com I asked for help with translations from English to Italian.

• Sono stato sorpreso di apprendere che "wrecking bar (crowbar)" è "piede di porco" in italiano, che significa "pig's foot".
  I was surprised to learn that "wrecking bar (crowbar)" is "piede di porco" in Italian, which means "pig's foot."

Alla prossima!
