Notas de uso
- For body parts, use il pollice; for measurement, un pollice. Context usually makes the meaning clear.
- To say “thumbs up/down,” Italian often uses pollice in su / pollice verso, not a literal translation of the English gesture phrase.
- Don’t confuse pollice with dito: the thumb is usually treated separately from the other fingers in Italian too.
