Usage notes
- For a person's behavior, condotta is more formal than comportamento; common in school, legal, and official contexts.
- In schools, voto di condotta means the behavior grade; learners often overuse comportamento here.
- For pipes or ducts, condotta is technical. In everyday speech, tubo or canna is often more natural.
