Notas de uso
- For weather, lampo is one flash; fulmine is the lightning bolt itself. In speech, people often say lampi e tuoni together.
- For clothing, lampo is common in everyday Italian, but cerniera is more neutral and widely understood in careful or formal contexts.
- In fixed expressions, lampo often means speed or suddenness: a colpo di fulmine is love at first sight, not a literal lightning strike.
