Usage notes

  • Use 'bellezza' for general beauty; 'bello' for specific things/people. 'Bellezza' is more abstract.
  • Avoid overusing 'bellezza' for people—'bello/a' is more natural in casual speech.
  • No plural form in common use; 'bellezze' refers to beautiful things/places, not abstract beauty.
