can someone help translate or understand this birth record for me? there are some confusing elements in here...

i believe it to be the birth record for Giuseppe Spina - parents were Biagio Spina and Maria Angela LaSala. this family was from Santa Ninfa, Sicily and the record was found in the Santa Ninfa town records. it appears to say that Giuseppe was born in Tinja (or Ferryville), Tunisia. it also looks like the record was made on 20 May 1909 but the birth occurred on 2 Oct 1907... am i reading this correctly?

i am also curious of Biagio's stated occupation, which i believe is shown in the enlargement linked below. thoughts?

You are correct.
Santa Ninfa is the birthplace of Giuseppe's parents and Giuseppe's birth was recorded in Santa Ninfa on May 20 1909 two years after the actual birth that occurred in Tindia on Oct 2 1907. The birth was recorded at the Comune of Ferriville (Tunisia) on Oct 4 1907. My understanding is that in 1907 Tindja was part of Ferriville.
This record also contains the exact birth date of Giuseppe's parents. Biagio Jan 24 1888 and Maria Angela La Sala Jan 12 1868. Maria Angela seems to be 20 years older than her husband...

I cannot figure out the occupation of Biagio: Txxrapiere...

incidentally, the year of Biagio's birth is incorrect on this record. he was born in 1878 (i have found that record), and Maria Angela was actually 10 years older than he was.
