instaurazione

establishment, institution

noun een-stow-rah-TSYOH-neh Rare

Origin: Latin instauratio (renewal, restoration)

Usage Note

Instaurazione denotes the formal founding or establishment of something — an institution, a regime, or a new order. It is a formal, written-register word; in everyday speech fondazione or istituzione are more common. Note that the prefix in- here means 'into/upon', not negation, so instaurazione is a positive act of creation, not destruction.

Examples

"L'instaurazione del nuovo regime fu rapida."

Natural Translation

The establishment of the new regime was rapid.
