Notas de uso
- Use barriera for physical or figurative obstacles; ostacolo is broader and often more abstract.
- For a road toll booth, Italians often say casello; barriera is more common for the toll barrier or older motorway usage.
- Common figurative collocation: barriera linguistica/culturale. Don't translate English 'barrier' with muro unless you mean an actual wall.
