How about "spericolato pirata".

Hello and welcome ninica.
I'd translate it with
"il pirata spaccone" where, to make it clear "spaccone" can also be = "boaster"

I have no idea unless you take some time to explain that to me!

Why, Silvia, don't you like alfry's translation?

Hi guys,


Thanks for your help with 'swashbuckling'. The English equivalent is an answer to a multiple choice personality test and it is meant to evoke a 'positive', adventurous image of the person taking this test.

Allora direi: pirata avventuriero.

Thanks a lot, everyone. Your answers were all helpful and I appreciate your efforts. I believe that 'silviap' s suggestion fits the text the best. But thanks to all.

Hi Silviap,

Posso suggerire 'pirata fiammegiante' (flamboyant)? Gianni
