Italian word

davanti

in front of, ahead, before

Looks like

avant (front in French/Italian)

N/A (not an English word)

⚠️ The trap

English speakers may write 'avanti' when they mean 'in front of', but 'avanti' means 'forward/come in'. 'Davanti' = in front of (position). 'Avanti!' = Go forward! / Come in!

To say "N/A (not an English word)" in Italian:

davanti

"davanti" in English means:

in front of, ahead, before

Example

"Ti aspetto davanti alla scuola."

"I'll wait for you in front of the school."
