In Sicilian, "fitta" is a noun, meaning hurt. Sicilian and Italian are often VERY different. Sicilian has a lot of Greek in it. Sharon C.

I am really thinking there must be an Italian connection with this word and would like to throw myself on the mercy of anyone who is really into medieval and Renaissance Italian (clothing, language, whatever). The word is CATAFITTI, but, of course, it could come in a variety of spellings. My great thanks if anyone is able to help.
