Notas de uso
- Use 'legare' for physical ties (ropes, bonds) or abstract connections (emotions, ideas). 'Collegare' is better for logical links (e.g., ideas, devices).
- Common mistake: Overusing 'legare' for 'to tie' in cooking. Italians say 'annodare' for tying knots or 'legare' only if binding ingredients (e.g., meat).
- Auxiliary: 'Avere' for transitive uses (ho legato), 'essere' for intransitive/reflexive (mi sono legato).
