Usage notes
- Use schermo for TV, computer, or phone screens. For a movie theater screen, speakers often prefer schermo cinematografico or simply schermo from context.
- Do not confuse schermo with monitor: monitor is the physical display device; schermo often refers to the visible screen surface.
- Common preposition is sullo: sullo schermo = on the screen. The article contracts because schermo takes lo in the singular.
