clausola

a contractual clause; a provision

Looks like

clause

a section of a legal document; a grammatical clause

⚠️ The trap

In Italian contracts, 'clausole' are standard. The key trap is 'clausola' vs. 'articolo': 'articolo' is used for articles in laws and regulations; 'clausola' is specifically for contractual provisions. English 'clause' covers both.

To say "a section of a legal document; a grammatical clause" in Italian:

clausola

"clausola" in English means:

a contractual clause; a provision

Example

"La clausola penale prevede una multa di 10.000 euro."

"The penalty clause provides for a fine of €10,000."
