Usage notes
- More formal and public than dire or annunciare; common in politics, law, ceremonies, and journalism.
- Often takes a direct object: proclamare uno sciopero, proclamare il vincitore. For reported speech, che-clause is possible but less common.
- Do not confuse with dichiarare: dichiarare is broader and more neutral; proclamare suggests an official or solemn public statement.
