⚠️ The trap
No real English cognate. 'Guarire' means to recover or heal. 'Guarda!' means 'look!' (not 'guard!'). 'Guardia' means guard — a completely different word. 'Guarire' has no connection to English 'guard'.
To say "to protect, to keep watch" in Italian:
guarire (correct — to heal)
"guarire" in English means:
to recover, to heal, to get better
Example
"Spero che tu guarisca presto."
"I hope you get better soon."
