English term or phrase: pitching
"A small lighter was pitching and rolling sharply"
lorena
beccheggiare
Explanation:
In senso marinaresco (ma si usa anche in aviazione), il movimento dell'imbarcazione lungo l'asse longitudinale (il rollio è lungo l'asse trasversale).

Insomma, la "chiatta" rullava e beccheggiava notevolmente.

Dovrei andare a mangiare, ma mi è venuto il mal di mare :-).

Giusto per amor di precisione, anche se la domanda è stata chiusa: una nave (barca, chiatta...) ROLLA. "Rullare" non è molto comune in ambito marinaresco.

Oltre alla mia esperienza di navigatrice, mi affido al buon vecchio Devoto-Oli:

ROLLARE: di navi in navigazione o di aerei in volo, oscillare attorno al proprio asse longitudinale. Da cui il sostantivo ROLLIO.

RULLARE: in aeronautica, dell'aeromobile che corre con le ruote a contatto col terreno. Non comune per rollare.
