Usage Note
Condono refers to an official pardon or remission — most often a condono fiscale (tax amnesty) or condono edilizio (building amnesty, whereby unauthorised constructions are retroactively legalised). It is a politically charged word in Italy, associated with periodic government measures that critics call 'rewards for lawbreakers'. The verb is condonare (to pardon, to remit).
