If I could give my 2 cents on the word for married.

Maritata I believe is a derivative of the word marito or husband which is old meaning for a woman who is husband.

Sposata is a truer translation. Though I think the correct conjugation of the verb sposare (to marry) here would be sposa.


You ...

Thanks I appreciate the help. One time I was told it meant prison but could never find the relationship.

I'm trying to find the meaning of the Carcione surname. I know my paternal grandfather was from Palermo Sicily. I've seen a few names that end in cione but can't even find anything related to that suffix.

Any help would be appreciated.
