Notas de uso
- Mostly literary or formal in modern Italian. In everyday speech, speakers often prefer appendere, essere appeso, inclinarsi, or propendere depending on context.
- For physical hanging, pendere often suggests dangling or slanting, not simply being attached. Don't use it automatically for every English 'hang.'
- In figurative opinion contexts, use pendere toward a side or choice; propendere per is usually more common in contemporary usage.
