Usage Note
Gettonato derives from gettone (token, coin) — a word that originally described jukeboxes paid with tokens; something heavily 'tokened' became figuratively 'popular'. Today it belongs firmly to informal register: use it in conversation or journalism, not in formal writing. The feminine form is gettonata.
Examples
"Quel ristorante è molto gettonato."
Natural Translation
That restaurant is very popular.
