⚠️ The trap
These are identical in meaning. The Italian 'ambizioso' can carry a slightly more negative undertone in certain contexts (overly ambitious, grasping) compared to the often-neutral or positive English use. Context matters.
To say "having a strong desire and determination to succeed" in Italian:
N/A (same meaning)
"ambizioso" in English means:
ambitious
Example
"È una studentessa ambiziosa: vuole diventare ingegnere."
"She is an ambitious student: she wants to become an engineer."
