Usage notes
- Use 'domenica' for Sunday; never 'giorno del Signore' in everyday speech—it’s overly formal or religious.
- Say 'di domenica' for 'on Sundays' (habitual), but 'la domenica' for a specific Sunday (e.g., 'la domenica scorsa').
- No capitalization in Italian: 'domenica' is lowercase unless it starts a sentence.
