Usage notes

  • In modern Italian, video is invariable: un video, due video. Do not add an English-style plural like "videos" in careful Italian.
  • For a clip or recording, video is natural. For the physical screen, prefer schermo; monitor is common for computer displays.
  • Fare un video means "make/shoot a video." Registrare un video stresses recording; girare un video is common for filming.
