Notas de uso
- Often more formal than spegnere for fires: estinguere un incendio is standard; spegnere suits lights, engines, phones, and everyday objects.
- For debts, loans, mortgages, and accounts, estinguere is the usual verb in banking and legal contexts; pagare is broader and less technical.
- It takes avere in compound tenses: ho estinto il mutuo. Past participle is estinto, not estinguato.
- past participle estinto
