Italian word
prostata
prostate (gland)
Looks like
prostate
same
⚠️ The trap
Same meaning, but a very common English error: 'prostrate' (lying face down) vs 'prostate' (the gland). In Italian this confusion doesn't exist: 'prostata' = gland, 'prostrarsi' = to prostrate oneself. Completely different words.
To say "same" in Italian:
prostata (correct)
"prostata" in English means:
prostate (gland)
Example
"Gli uomini over 50 dovrebbero fare controlli regolari alla prostata."
"Men over 50 should have regular prostate check-ups."
