Notas de uso
- Use scoppio for a sudden burst or detonation; esplosione is broader and more technical for explosions, especially in news or science.
- Common in phrases like allo scoppio di and in + noun constructions; don't confuse it with scoperta or scoppiare.
- For sounds, botto is more colloquial; scoppio sounds slightly more neutral or tied to an actual burst.
