Notas de uso
- In modern Italian, bara usually means coffin. For a stretcher, barella is far more common.
- Cassa da morto is a more explicit, colloquial alternative; bara is the neutral everyday word in funeral contexts.
- The relic-carriage and regional wagon senses are rare or historical; avoid them unless the context is clearly religious or regional.
