Italian word
affetto
affection, fondness
Looks like
affected
influenced by; pretentious in manner
⚠️ The trap
'Affetto' is a warm noun meaning fondness. If you mean 'he was affected by the disease', say 'è stato colpito dalla malattia', not 'ha avuto affetto dalla malattia'.
To say "influenced by; pretentious in manner" in Italian:
affettato (manners), colpito (influenced)
"affetto" in English means:
affection, fondness
Example
"Ho molto affetto per i miei nonni."
"I have great affection for my grandparents."
