Notas de uso
- Use 'fronte' for forehead, not 'testa' (head) or 'viso' (face). 'Fronte' is more specific.
- In poetry, 'fronte' refers to the first 8 lines of a sonnet. Don't confuse with 'sestina' (last 6 lines).
- For 'front' (e.g., war, weather), use 'fronte' only in formal/technical contexts. 'Davanti' is more common.
