agree  writeaway: Emanated Emanato http://www.probertencyclopaedia.com/dic/en-it-e.htm (fwiw-I find this language pair very frustrating -everyone constantly posts 100% CL with correct and incorrect answers-must be very misleading for Askers who really don't know/see below

neutral  writeaway: I saw this on a US embassy doc but I think it may be mistranslation.http://www.usembassy.it/viewer/article.asp?article=/file2008... Enacted Decretato http://www.probertencyclopaedia.com/dic/en-it-e.htm

agree  Ivana UK: why would it be a mistranslation? emanare (synonym of emettere) = to issue, to pass, to enact (e.g. run a search for 'legge emanata' = 'law enacted')
