elettronico

electronic

adjective eh-let-TROH-nee-koh Less Common

Usage Note

Elettronico ends in -co with stress not on the final syllable, so its masculine plural keeps the hard sound: elettronici. You'll see it in posta elettronica ('email') and commercio elettronico ('e-commerce').

Examples

"Uso la posta elettronica ogni giorno."

Natural Translation

I use email every day.

Literal Translation

I-use the post electronic every day.
