Italian word

eccezionale

exceptional, extraordinary, outstanding

Looks like

exceptional

unusually good; forming an exception

⚠️ The trap

Good match, but in Italian 'eccezionale' is used more liberally in everyday speech as a general superlative ('amazing', 'fantastic'), while in English 'exceptional' sounds more formal.

To say "unusually good; forming an exception" in Italian:

eccezionale

"eccezionale" in English means:

exceptional, extraordinary, outstanding

Example

"È stato un concerto eccezionale."

"It was an exceptional concert."
