Notas de uso
- In politics, mandato often means a term in office: primo/secondo mandato. Don't confuse it with incarico, which is a specific assignment or role.
- For legal or official contexts, mandato is more formal than ordine or richiesta. It often appears in bureaucracy, contracts, and court language.
- Mandato di arresto is the standard phrase for arrest warrant. English speakers may overuse ordine here, but Italian strongly prefers mandato.
