Usage notes

  • Use esperimento for scientific or controlled contexts; prova or tentativo is more natural for everyday tries or attempts.
  • Fare un esperimento is the standard collocation. Avoid using avere with it in basic contexts.
  • In school and science writing, esperimento is neutral and common; in casual speech, test or prova may sound more natural.
