Italian word

decidere

to decide, to make up one's mind

Looks like

to decide

to come to a decision or resolution

⚠️ The trap

Good match, but in Italian 'decidere' requires the infinitive directly: 'decidere di fare' = 'to decide to do'. Unlike English which uses 'decide to + infinitive', Italian uses 'decidere di + infinitive'.

To say "to come to a decision or resolution" in Italian:

decidere

"decidere" in English means:

to decide, to make up one's mind

Example

"Non riesco a decidere."

"I can't decide."
