Notas de uso
- For a person's face, muso is informal and often rude or mocking. Use viso or faccia in neutral contexts.
- In fare il muso, it means sulking or giving someone the silent treatment, not literally making a face.
- For vehicles, muso is common in everyday speech; in technical or formal contexts, prefer parte anteriore or prua/naso where appropriate.
