Notas de uso
- For a store’s exterior sign, insegna is more natural than cartello, which usually means a notice, warning, or temporary sign.
- Often used in the phrase all’insegna di + noun, meaning “under the banner of” or “characterized by,” especially in journalism and formal writing.
- The military sense usually appears in the plural, insegne, and is formal or historical; don’t use it for ordinary logos or brand marks.
