Notas de uso
- Often means energetic drive or momentum, not just a physical leap. For emotional or figurative contexts, it is more natural than salto.
- Common in phrases with dare or prendere: dare slancio, prendere slancio. English speakers often overuse fare slancio, which is uncommon.
- In sports, slancio is technical in weightlifting for clean and jerk. Outside that context, avoid translating it mechanically as a sport term.
