Usage Note

Risolutivo describes something that has the power to resolve or definitively settle a situation — un intervento risolutivo (a decisive intervention), un farmaco risolutivo (a curative drug). It is more formal than decisivo (decisive) and carries the specific nuance of actually solving or curing rather than simply being important.

Examples

"Hanno trovato un accordo risolutivo dopo mesi di trattative."

Natural Translation

They reached a decisive agreement after months of negotiations.
