Advanced Description
This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.In Italian, tardi is commonly used to refer to something that occurs after the expected or desired time. For example, if someone arrives at a party after it has already started, they could say 'sono arrivato tardi' which means 'I arrived late'.
Tardi can also be used to describe a time of day that is later than usual. For instance, if someone usually wakes up at 7am but oversleeps and wakes up at 10am, they could say 'mi sono svegliato tardi' which means 'I woke up late'.
It's important to note that tardi is a relative term and its meaning can vary depending on the context. What may be considered late in one situation may not be considered late in another. Therefore, it's always best to consider the specific context when interpreting the meaning of tardi.
