Italian word
amaro
bitter; a bitter herbal liqueur
Looks like
amour (French influence in English)
love (borrowed from French)
⚠️ The trap
'Amaro' means bitter, not love. Love in Italian is 'amore'. An 'amaro' is also a specific category of Italian bitter herbal liqueurs (Campari, Cynar, etc.) — very different from something romantic.
To say "love (borrowed from French)" in Italian:
amore
"amaro" in English means:
bitter; a bitter herbal liqueur
Example
"Dopo cena prendiamo un amaro per digerire."
"After dinner we have a digestive bitter liqueur."
