Notas de uso
- Elmo is literary or historical; in everyday Italian, casco is the normal word for bike, motorcycle, or work helmets.
- Use elmo mainly for medieval, military, or figurative contexts, not for modern safety gear.
- With body-part style possession, Italian often uses the article: indossare l'elmo, not usually a possessive like 'his helmet'.
