-society o company?-
Nota d'uso
Il sostantivo italiano “società” nel senso di “collettività”, “comunità” corrisponde all'inglese society, ma le due parole non sono sempre sovrapponibili. Infatti, society non significa “società” nel senso di “grande azienda”, che in inglese è company: Fiat is a large company (non Fiat is a large society), la Fiat è una grossa società. Inoltre, society ha anche il significato di “associazione”, “istituzione” non sempre traducibile in italiano con “società”: She joined the local Society of History Re-enactment, si unì all'Associazione di Rievocazione Storica locale.
