Etymology
The word "la costruzione" comes from the Italian verb "costruire," meaning 'to build.' This, in turn, derives from the Latin verb "construere," which means 'to heap up' or 'to build together.' Did you know? The Latin root combines 'con-' (together) and 'struere' (to pile up), reflecting the idea of assembling parts to form a whole.
