Is 'lucertole' an accurate translation for 'lizard'? Or is there a better word in Italian for a small lizard?

you often see on ancient ruins in Mediterranean countries. Asking native Italians specifically, thanks.

Update:

Thank you very much, both of you, this is very helpful.

Update 2:

Britney, you're hilarious. You'll find coming to Ireland EXTREMELY educational. I sincerely hope everyone reads your answer, I haven't had such a good laugh all day.

Thank you to everyone else who answered my actual question, I had a tough time choosing the best answer, if I could have chosen all of you (except Britney, bless her), I would have.

    La LucertolA is a small green lizard (lucertole is the plural).

    In italian language other words like that are Geco (too big) and Ramarro (not green).

    yes, that's the right word, and I can't think of any others

    lucertola = lizard

    lucertole = lizards

    una piccola lucertola = a small lizard

    Source(s): im italian
  • Sarebbe "Lucertola" (lucertole is plural)
