1 -famous, infamous o notorious?-
Nota d'usoIn inglese esistono diversi aggettivi per indicare notorietà, oltre a famous, che corrisponde all'italiano “famoso”. Quando si parla di personaggi noti per fatti negativi, si usa di solito l'aggettivo infamous: The infamous Bin Laden is still at large, il famigerato Bin Laden è ancora latitante. Un altro aggettivo spesso usato in questo contesto con una connotazione negativa è notorious: the notorious Provenzano, il tristemente noto Provenzano. Notorious è meno forte di infamous.English-Italian dictionary > -famous, infamous o notorious?-
