Answer 4

Yes. It means frog.

Answer 5

Yes, the word "rana" means frog in Italian.  It is also the Latin word for frog, and is thus used as a scientific generic name.

Answer 6

Interestingly enough it does mean the same thing in Spanish.  Rana is frog.  As in English (frog), rana is just a generic name for the common frog.  It is not a scientific name nor does it name any particular type of frog such as the Bull Frog.  It is just a frog.

Answer 7

"Rana" does indeed mean "frog" in Italian. It's a very common word, not at all scientific. It's also used for the term "breaststroke," like the way you swim.
