Usage Note

Tassativamente derives from tassativo (exhaustive, binding) and is used in legal and administrative writing to indicate that a list or provision is exhaustive and admits no exceptions — closer to 'exclusively' than merely 'strictly'. It is a bureaucratic register word; everyday Italian uses assolutamente or rigorosamente instead.

Examples

"I casi previsti sono tassativamente elencati dalla legge."

Natural Translation
