Having problems with the Italian language? Do you need help to translate or understand an old family document? There is always someone who can help you!
hi everyone i was just wondering if i could get a translation of 2 phrases im getting as tattoos.. ive looked up translations of them on a few different websites and they are all different.. the two phrases are "she flies with her own wings" and "live every day like it's your last" (or something along those lines)...if someone could get back to me it would be very appreciated!! please email me at a_corrado21@hotmail.com.. THANKS!
the second: "Vivere ogni giorno come fosse l'ultimo" this is the last part of complete phrase:
"Questa è la perfezione morale: vivere ogni giorno come fosse l’ultimo." (Marco Aurelio- Roman Emperor)
