    Italian help!
    Hello to anyone who can speak Italian quite well,

    Basically I'm composing a piece at the moment and I want to give it an Italian title. I did the rookie thing to do and Google translated it. What I want it to be is 'for my dragonfly' in Italian. Google suggested: 'per la mia libellula' but, if you retranslate it tells me 'on my dragonfly' and it says the preposition for 'on' and 'for' amongst others, is 'per'

    Could anyone help me work out the Italian for this title? Thanks

    Why not ask Ezio Auditore? I'm sure he'll help you if he doesn't assassinate you first

    Coming from an Italian, the correct translation of "for my dragonfly" is "per la mia libellula". The equivalent preposition for "on" is "su", not "per"
