Notas de uso
- Mostly historical or literary. In modern Italian, use signore/signora for forms of address, not signoria in everyday speech.
- Often capitalized as Signoria in old-fashioned formal address: Vostra Signoria. This sounds archaic, bureaucratic, or theatrical today.
- For the political sense, it refers to medieval Italian rule or regime; don't confuse it with signorile, which is an adjective.
