metodo

method

noun MEH-toh-doh Less Common

Origin: from Greek 'methodos', pursuit of knowledge

Usage Note

Metodo stresses the first syllable (MEH-toh-doh), a common trap since English stresses 'method' there too but speakers often slip. It pairs with con metodo ('methodically') and un metodo infallibile. The plural is the regular metodi.

Examples

"Questo metodo funziona bene."

Natural Translation

This method works well.
