Notas de uso
- More formal than lode or complimento. Common in writing, speeches, reviews, and institutional contexts.
- Fare un elogio is common; elogiare is the verb. Avoid using elogio as if it were a verb.
- In school or official language, pubblico elogio means formal recognition, not just casual praise.
