Usage notes
- Use considerazione in formal or neutral contexts; in casual speech, parere or opinione is often more natural for “opinion.”
- In tenere in considerazione, it means “take into account,” not “keep in consideration” as in English.
- Avere considerazione di qualcuno means “to respect/regard someone,” not simply “to consider someone.”
