Usage notes
- As intransitive with di, it takes avere: Ho risentito del freddo. Not essere.
- Don't confuse risentire with sentirsi: risentire di means suffer the effects of something, not simply feel a sensation.
- For contacting someone again, Italians often prefer risentirsi: Ci risentiamo domani = we'll talk again tomorrow.
