Usage notes
- Often used before a noun for emphasis: dannato problema. Stronger and harsher than maledetto in many contexts.
- It agrees in gender and number: dannato, dannata, dannati, dannate.
- Common in speech as an insult or exclamation; avoid in formal writing unless you want a deliberately emotional tone.
