Usage notes
- Do not confuse it with English "eventual." In Italian, eventuale means possible or if needed, not final or ultimate.
- Often used in formal or bureaucratic contexts: eventuali problemi, eventuale rimborso. In casual speech, possibile or magari may sound more natural.
- It agrees in gender and number: eventuale, eventuali. There is no special masculine/feminine singular form.
