lavoro

/la'voro/

I due principali equivalenti inglesi della parola lavoro sono job e work: in linea generale, job si riferisce al posto di lavoro o al rapporto d'impiego (specie se subordinato), mentre work indica l'attività lavorativa, il compito da svolgere, l'attività fisica o mentale richiesta per produrre qualcosa. Per gli esempi e numerosi usi idiomatici, si veda la voce qui sotto. - Per un riferimento più specifico, invece di job o work, possono anche essere usate parole quali post, position o occupation (per definire in modo formale un lavoro nel senso di posizione lavorativa), line of work o line of business (per definire nel linguaggio parlato il tipo di lavoro che uno fa), trade (per definire un lavoro manuale ma qualificato, ad esempio quello dell'elettricista) o profession (letteralmente, professione).
