Notas de uso
- Usually transitive: sottomettere qualcuno/qualcosa. For “submit an application/document,” prefer presentare or inoltrare; sottomettere sounds formal or literary.
- Often stronger than subordinare: sottomettere suggests domination or conquest, not just placing something in a lower rank.
- In modern Italian, the “submit for consideration” sense is formal: sottomettere una proposta al giudizio/alla commissione.
- past participle sottomesso
