Notas de uso
- Use scambio for a swap or exchange; use errore or equivoco, not scambio, for most everyday “mistake” contexts.
- For commercial contexts, scambio often appears in plural: scambi commerciali = trade relations/exchanges.
- In rail contexts, uno scambio means a railway switch; this technical sense is common in transport news, not daily conversation.
