a piece
Aspettammo un pezzo, in silenzio.
We waited for a while, in silence.
Beh, in ogni opera l'artista mette un pezzo di sé.
Well, in every work of art, the artist puts a piece of themselves.
— Blade Runner 2049 (2017)
Stette un pezzo in silenzio, tremando violentemente.
He stood there silently for a while, trembling violently.
