Usage Note
Sviluppo is central to Italian economic and social discourse: sviluppo sostenibile (sustainable development), paese in via di sviluppo (developing country). In photography, sviluppo also means film development. Note the unusual initial sv- consonant cluster, rare in Italian, which gives it a slightly emphatic feel.
