Notas de uso
- For human skin, use pelle, not cuoio or pelle animale. For fur-bearing animals, Italians often specify pelliccia instead.
- In clothing, in pelle means leather material: giacca in pelle. Don't use di pelle for this meaning.
- Pelle is feminine singular: la pelle, della pelle. In idioms, it often means personal safety or survival, not literal skin.
