Italian slang for a slut or prostitute. Usually Italians cut the ending so it sounds more like putan'.

The most basic translation is SLUT, not necessarily a paid whore or prostitute. It is normally derisive and used to label a "loose" woman, to put it nicely. In some parts of Greece, however, it is now used as an infomal term of address not meant as an insult. Think of the term "player" in the US, except as it applies to a woman. Most, however, would take the word a severe insult equivalent to "malakas" for a man.
The word originated in Greece, but it is now commonly used in Italy, Turkey, and generally the Eastern Mediterranean.

I want to get a prostitute.
Better get putana, though expensive, they are better. But you must have dollars.
