B2🔤 Letters T–Z
Italian word
voce
voice; word/entry (in a dictionary); item (in a list or budget)
Looks like
voice
the sound produced by speaking or singing
⚠️ The trap
'Voce' in Italian extends beyond the literal voice. 'Voce di dizionario' = dictionary entry. 'Voce di spesa' = budget item. These uses have no parallel in English 'voice'.
To say "the sound produced by speaking or singing" in Italian:
voce (same basic meaning, plus extended uses)
"voce" in English means:
voice; word/entry (in a dictionary); item (in a list or budget)
Example
"C'è una voce nel bilancio per le spese di viaggio."
"There is an item in the budget for travel expenses."
