Notas de uso
- For fires, Italians usually say appiccare un incendio / il fuoco, not *iniziare un fuoco*.
- Appiccare is more literary or formal for 'attach/hang'; in everyday speech, attaccare or appendere are usually more natural.
- With the fire meaning, it often appears in crime or news contexts: hanno appiccato l'incendio.
