  1. Italian

Where "teatro" (Italian) is described as meaning "theater" in all meanings, does that include the American meaning of a cinema? Because in the Italian wiktionary https://it.wiktionary.org/wiki/teatro , teatro equates to the British definitions of theatre but not the American ones.86.181.21.251 13:34, 23 February 2020 (UTC)Reply


  1. Spanish

Spanish "teatro" definition 2 "movie theater" isn't found in the Spanish Wiktionary's set of definitions of Spanish "teatro". Is it a modern development and/or restricted to Latin American Spanish or to Spanish as spoken in the United States? 13:47, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Nor does the dictionary of the Spanish Academy ( https://dle.rae.es/?w=teatro ) provide any evidence of this sense. 86.181.21.251 10:43, 24 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Metaknowledge: I can't find any unambiguous cases, and I don't see it in dictionaries. The best quote I found turned out to be a theater that also shows films. The vast majority of Google Books results combining "teatro" and "película" are English translations that I wouldn't trust. Ultimateria (talk) 19:33, 28 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Ultimateria, I tried your search terms, but looking with places in California to try to find genuine US Spanish. Take a look at the quotes I added to the entry and see if they pass muster. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 20:08, 28 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
@Metaknowledge: That looks fine with the added gloss, since I don't see it actually used as a synonym of cine. Ultimateria (talk) 23:29, 28 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
It is in the Million Dollar context! —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 23:47, 28 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
