Notas de uso
- Use premio for prizes and awards. For salary-related extra pay, premio is possible, but bonus is also very common in modern business Italian.
- Don’t confuse premio with ricompensa: ricompensa is a reward for help, honesty, or returning something, often more personal than premio.
- In insurance, premio means the premium you pay, not a special offer. Learners often misread this sense from English.
