6 -casual, case o coincidence?-
Nota d'usoQuando si vuole evidenziare il fatto che un evento è stato del tutto casuale, non si usano, di norma, le parole “casual” o “case”, bensì “coincidence” oppure la locuzione “by chance”: Ieri ho visto il mio vecchio prof di storia; è stato un puro caso, I saw my old history teacher yesterday; it was a complete coincidence; yesterday I met my old history teacher by chance; Il fatto che fossi lì è puramente casuale, the fact that I was there is just a coincidence. Il significato principale dell'aggettivo “casual”, infatti è informale, rilassato, anche se in alcuni contesti può essere tradotto con casuale (ma non nell'uso matematico-statistico): Era soltanto una considerazione casuale, it was just a casual remark. -
