Notas de uso
- Use borgo for a small historic or picturesque settlement; paese is the everyday word for a town or village.
- In modern Italian, borough and suburb meanings are uncommon; don’t use borgo for ordinary city neighborhoods.
- Often appears in tourism and heritage language: antico borgo, borgo medievale. It sounds more evocative than neutral.
