Notas de uso
- More literary and formal than many learners expect; in everyday speech, numero, tanti, or un sacco di are often more natural.
- Usually appears as moltitudine di + noun: una moltitudine di persone. Don’t use it like English multitude without di before another noun.
- Often takes a singular verb when treated as one group, but plural agreement may appear when the following noun is emphasized.
