You could always think of fabricating something in a fabrica.... but even this doesn't seem to work. lol I still think of a factory when I say fattoria. .-= Catherine´s last blog ..Surprise news! =-.

Thanks for the validation, especially on Fattoria. And Burino is ALWAYS used in context as a put-down, like Dumb-Hick instead of ‘fine upstanding farmer’

First off, TOTALLY with you on "boh." Wonderful all-purpose word with no adequate English equivalent. Second, also totally with you on fattoria. Completely a falso amico, that one. Finally, would "burino" be an accurate translation for calling someone a "bubba" in the US? Someone who's not altogether there, but stupidly sweet? Or is it always a put-down? .-= Jessica, WhyGo Italy´s last blog ..Roma Pass: What it Covers & Whether it’s Worth the Cost =-.
