Usage notes
- Use 'religione' for organized faiths (Christianity, Islam). For personal belief, 'fede' is more natural.
- Avoid capitalizing 'religione' unless it starts a sentence. Unlike English, Italian doesn’t capitalize religions.
- Common mistake: saying 'una religione' when referring to general belief. Often uncountable in Italian.
