What is 'savory' when translated from English to Italian?

Answer 1

The singular salata or saporita and the plural salate or saporite in the feminine or the singular salato or saporito and the plural salati or saporiti in the masculine as adjectives and santoreggia as a feminine singular noun are literal Italian equivalents of the English word "savory." The choice depends upon the gender and number of what is perceived as "savory" as a modifier and upon whether the reference is to something salty (cases 1, 3, 5, 7) or tasty (cases 2, 4, 6, 8) or to the annual or perennial herb used as a food flavoring (example 9). The respective pronunciations will be "sa-LA-ta," "sa-LA-tey," "sa-LA-to," and "sa-LA-tee" for "salty," "SA-po-REE-ta," "SA-po-REE-tey," "SA-po-REE-to," and "SA-po-REE-tee" for "tasty," and "SAN-to-RED-dja" for "savory" herb in Italian.
