Notas de uso
- Use contadino for a traditional or small-scale rural farmer; agricoltore sounds more neutral, modern, and professional.
- It can sound old-fashioned or class-marked in some contexts; avoid it for official job titles unless the rustic nuance is intended.
- Feminine is contadina; plural contadini/contadine. Don’t confuse it with paesano, which means fellow villager or compatriot, not farmer.
