Allamministrazione

Allamministrazione (correctly written all'amministrazione) is an Italian prepositional phrase formed by the preposition a plus the definite article l' followed by the noun amministrazione (administration). The elision produces all'amministrazione, meaning “to the administration” or “to the office of the administration.” The form without the apostrophe, allamministrazione, is generally considered nonstandard or a typographical variant; standard Italian uses all'amministrazione in formal writing.

Usage and scope

The phrase is used in legal, bureaucratic, and administrative texts to indicate a destination, recipient, or point of reference for actions, documents, or responsibilities. Examples include sentences such as “La domanda è stata inviata all'amministrazione” (The application has been sent to the administration) or “competenze attribuite all'amministrazione locale” (competencies attributed to the local administration). It can also specify particular administrative bodies, for instance all'amministrazione centrale (to the central administration) or all'amministrazione regionale (to the regional administration).

Linguistic notes

All'amministrazione is not a standalone field or institution; it is a grammatical construction used to refer to government or organizational administration within a sentence. Its usage aligns with standard Italian prepositional phrases involving a + l' + noun. Cognate terms and related topics in public governance include amministrazione pubblica (public administration), burocrazia (bureaucracy), and amministrazione locale (local administration).
