Notas de uso
- More literary and formal than raccontare. In everyday speech, Italians usually prefer raccontare for stories, events, or personal experiences.
- Often used in writing, journalism, history, and criticism: narrare una vicenda, un romanzo narra. It can sound stiff in casual conversation.
- Regular -are verb; takes avere in compound tenses: ha narrato, not è narrato when used transitively.
