Usage Note
Foro has two distinct meanings that share identical spelling: a hole or aperture (e.g. il foro nella parete), and a historical or judicial forum (il Foro Romano, the Roman Forum; il foro competente in legal language). Context always disambiguates. The plural of both senses is fori.
Examples
"Ha fatto un foro nel muro per il cavo."
Natural Translation
He made a hole in the wall for the cable.
