The actual words: mors ante infamia or depending on dialect: malo mori quam foedari or for the game Death before dishonor??

As I said...depends on dialect. There are over 100 different dialects in Italy. Take your pick!

Padrino you are correct. The second one is latin. Wanted to see if anyone picked it up!! The first one isnt though. That is how my father used to say it anyway. Is not a direct translation but means the same thing.

I was trying to think last night how we say it. Been along time since I spoke Italian.

My family speaks Calabrese.

morte prima di disonore is correct.

I once had a customer who's name was Galina. First time she called up I laughed my head off to the point of not being able to talk.

I finally told her that her name meant Chicken in Italian!!
