What is 'Pinocchio' when translated from Italian to English?

Answer 1

"Fennel" is an English equivalent of the Italian word finocchio. But care must be taken in using the masculine singular noun in question since one of its colloquial, conversational, informal meanings is an insulting designation for a homosexual. The pronunciation will be "fee-NOK-kyo" in Italian.

Answer 2

"Pine eye" is an English equivalent of the Italian word pinocchio.

Specifically, the Italian word is a masculine noun that combines the masculine nouns pino ("pine") and occhio ("eye"). The pronunciation is peen-NOHK-kyoh."

Answer 3

"Little pine seed" and "pine nutlet" are English equivalents of the Italian name Pinocchio. The masculine proper name in question references the main character in Le Avventure di Pinocchio ("The Adventures of Pinocchio") by Carlo Collodi (Carlo Lorenzini, November 24, 1826 - October 26, 1890) and translates into English as "pine eye" (pino merged with occhio) or -- in terms of the protagonist's origins as a wood-honed marionette -- "pine nutlet" or "pine seedlet" (pinolo merged with the disparaging suffix -occio). The pronunciation will be "pea-NOK-kyo" in Italian.

Answer 4

"Pine eye" and "pine seed" are English equivalents of the Italian name Pinocchio. The masculine proper name combines the masculine singular nouns pino ("pine") and occhio("eye") or represents a variant of the masculine singular noun pinolo ("pine seedling"). The pronunciation will be "pea-NOK-kyo" in Pisan Italian.
