il trapasso
Parola del giorno
The pope’s funeral was Saturday, and, as we wait for the new pope to be selected, let’s profile the word il trapasso, which means death or passing.
Il trapasso is considered a softer and more delicate way to describe someone’s passing.
See the expression used below:
Il trapasso del Papa ha attirato migliaia di pellegrini e devoti, persone desiderose di prendere commiato dal Santo Padre.
The passing of the Pope attracted thousands of pilgrims and devotees, people wanting to say goodbye to the Holy Father.
