I don't speak Italian, but I'm sure it depends on the dialect. It always
does. They must have 1,000 variations of the word, and one of them must be
'rociada' ( similar to rocio ) and another one must be 'orvalada', similar
to the Portuguese 'orvalho' ( by the way, it's a masculine word too ).
That's one of the reasons I quit my Italian classes: most of my classmates
had Italian origins too ( as well as I do), but each from a different region
and with some background in the language because of their families, and they
loved to show to the rest how much they knew of the language ( But isn't
it...? I think I heard ... AARRRGGGGHHH) As I wanted to learn ONE language
only, I gave up.

BTW, Vale, I know my first name stems from the Roman name Caius ( as in
Caius Julius Caesar ), but do you have a corresponding name in Italian
nowadays?

Bye,

Caio Rossi
