Usage notes
- Use 'creare' for making something new; 'fare' is more general (e.g., 'fare una torta' vs. 'creare un capolavoro').
- Common mistake: overusing 'creare' for physical objects—'costruire' or 'produrre' often fit better.
- Auxiliary is 'avere' (ho creato), but 'essere' for passive/reflexive (sono stato creato).
