Italian word

isola

island; also a traffic island/roundabout island

Looks like

isolated / island

island — correct

⚠️ The trap

Good cognate for 'island'. However, in city driving 'isola pedonale' means a pedestrianised zone (literally 'pedestrian island') — not actually an island. Also 'isola di calore' means heat island (urban overheating).

To say "island — correct" in Italian:

isola

"isola" in English means:

island; also a traffic island/roundabout island

Example

"La Sicilia è la più grande isola del Mediterraneo."

"Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean."
