Notas de uso
- Mostly old-fashioned or literary alone; today it appears especially before a trade noun, like mastro falegname.
- Don't confuse it with maestro: maestro is the normal word for a teacher, artist, or expert; mastro is narrower and more traditional.
- Usually masculine singular before the profession name; the plural is mastri, though many fixed titles stay singular in citation form.
