A2⚖️ Law & Politics

Italian word

legge

a law; legislation enacted by parliament

Looks like

league

an alliance or association of states/teams

⚠️ The trap

'Legge' and 'league' look similar in some forms. They are completely unrelated. A 'league' in Italian is 'lega'. 'Lega' also happens to be the name of an Italian political party, adding further confusion.

To say "an alliance or association of states/teams" in Italian:

legge

"legge" in English means:

a law; legislation enacted by parliament

Example

"Il parlamento ha approvato una nuova legge."

"Parliament approved a new law."
