Italian word
esame
exam, test; medical examination
Looks like
exam
a formal test of knowledge or skill
⚠️ The trap
'Esame' matches 'exam' well, but Italian uses it far more broadly — for any kind of check or test including medical tests. 'Esame del sangue' (blood test), 'esame degli occhi' (eye test). In English we'd say 'test' or 'check', not 'exam'.
To say "a formal test of knowledge or skill" in Italian:
esame
"esame" in English means:
exam, test; medical examination
Example
"Ho un esame del sangue domani."
"I have a blood test tomorrow."
