Usage notes
- Mostly used in fixed phrases like a proprio agio or mettere qualcuno a proprio agio, not as a common standalone noun in everyday speech.
- A suo agio means at ease; don't confuse it with agiato, which means well-off or wealthy.
- More literary or formal than comodità or comfort; for physical convenience, Italians often prefer comodità.
