A1🔤 Letters I & L
Italian word
luglio
July
Looks like
lug (to carry heavily) / lugubrious
no meaning — it is just a month name
⚠️ The trap
No false friend in meaning, but English speakers frequently confuse 'luglio' (July) with 'giugno' (June). Both end in vowels and are summer months. Remember: 'giugno' = June (6th month), 'luglio' = July (7th month).
To say "no meaning — it is just a month name" in Italian:
luglio (July)
"luglio" in English means:
July
Example
"Andiamo in vacanza a luglio."
"We go on holiday in July."
