A2🔤 Letters R & S
Italian word
raro
rare, uncommon
Looks like
rare (meat)
undercooked (for steak); uncommon
⚠️ The trap
'Raro' does mean rare in the sense of uncommon. But for a rare steak, Italians say 'al sangue' (bloody). Saying 'bistecca rara' would confuse an Italian waiter.
To say "undercooked (for steak); uncommon" in Italian:
al sangue (for rare steak)
"raro" in English means:
rare, uncommon
Example
"Questa specie di farfalla è molto rara."
"This species of butterfly is very rare."
