1 -imaginary o imaginative?-
Nota d'usoL'aggettivo imaginary significa “immaginario” in riferimento a persone o cose che non sono reali ed esistono solo nella fantasia: an imaginary danger, un pericolo immaginario. Imaginary non deve essere confuso con imaginative, che descrive invece persone o idee originali, fantasiose o creative: an imaginative designer, uno stilista fantasioso, imaginative writing, scrittura creativa, an imaginative scheme for a new concert hall, un progetto fantasioso per una nuova sala da concerti. -
