Notas de uso
- For a public speech, orazione is literary or formal; everyday Italian usually prefers discorso or intervento.
- For prayer, orazione is mainly Catholic or devotional language; in daily speech, preghiera is much more common.
- Don't confuse it with orario or orazione grammaticale. In grammar, orazione can mean clause/sentence, but that's a specialized school term.
