Notas de uso
- For a business owner, prefer titolare or proprietario; padrone often sounds old-fashioned, harsh, or class-based.
- For a pet owner, padrone is common in speech, but proprietario is more neutral and formal.
- As boss/employer, padrone is usually critical or ironic; use capo or datore di lavoro in neutral contexts.
