Usage notes

  • Use 'valore' for abstract worth (e.g., moral, artistic). For monetary value, prefer 'prezzo' or 'costo'.
  • Avoid confusing 'valore' with 'valuta' (currency). 'Valuta' refers to money systems, not worth.
  • In plural ('valori'), it often means 'values' (principles). Singular rarely means 'meaning'—use 'significato' instead.
