Usage notes
- Use come for comparisons before nouns or pronouns: come me, come un bambino. Don’t use che there.
- In exclamations and questions, come often means “how”: Come stai? Come mai? Very common in speech.
- For examples, come introduces one or more items: sport come calcio e tennis. Similar to per esempio, but more compact.
