⚠️ The trap

Mostly a true cognate, but in colloquial Italian 'valido' can mean 'great' or 'strong' — 'è un tipo valido' means he's a capable/solid person. English 'valid' is more restricted.

To say "legally or officially acceptable; logically sound" in Italian:

valido (same meaning)

"valido" in English means:

valid, effective; also: strong, robust (informal)

Example

"Il tuo passaporto è ancora valido?"

"Is your passport still valid?"
