Usage Note

Articolato describes something made up of multiple distinct parts or elaborated in detail — a discorso articolato is a well-structured, nuanced speech, not merely a long one. As a noun, articolato can refer to the text of a legislative article. Do not confuse it with English 'articulate' as a personality trait; Italian uses eloquente for that.

Examples

"Ha presentato un piano molto articolato."

Natural Translation
