Hello: The actual indication for notes played by the unexpected hand is M.D. (main droit) for right hand and M.G. (main gauche) for left hand. In this case, French is used instead of Italian.
I think "m.d." and "m.g." (lowercase) is more common, but I'm not sure about that. Or "m.d." (mano destro) and "m.s." (mano sinistra) in Italian. Or even R.H. and L.H. , in English, German, and Dutch. For an international edition I would choose the Italian version.
Like in: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bestand:LisztPaganiniEtudeNo4Opening.jpgBut the thread was about chords where part of the notes had to be played with the other hand. A slightly different matter.
