Notas de uso
- Use urbano for cities and infrastructure: sviluppo urbano, area urbana. For polite, refined behavior, urbane is literary and much less common.
- It agrees like a regular adjective: ambiente urbano, zone urbane. Learners often forget the plural urbani/urbane.
- In everyday Italian, cittadino can overlap with urbano, but cittadino often means civic or relating to citizens, not just the urban environment.
