Italian word
senso
sense, meaning, direction, feeling
Looks like
sense
a faculty; meaning; good judgment
⚠️ The trap
'Senso' means sense/meaning but also direction in Italian ('senso unico' = one-way street). English 'sense' never means direction. This is a practical trap for navigation.
To say "a faculty; meaning; good judgment" in Italian:
senso (true cognate — but 'direction' meaning is Italian-specific)
"senso" in English means:
sense, meaning, direction, feeling
Example
"Stai andando nel senso sbagliato."
"You're going in the wrong direction."
