Dallintervento

Dall'intervento is a contracted Italian prepositional phrase formed by da + l'intervento, meaning from or as a result of the intervention. It is used in formal and technical writing to indicate origin, causation, or basis for subsequent events, statements, or data. Although it can be read as a simple locution, its function is to foreground the intervention as the source of what follows.

Etymology and form: The phrase combines the preposition da with the definite article l' and the noun intervento (intervention). The elision is required before a vowel, producing dall'intervento. In Italian, the form dall'intervento is standard, while dall'intervento without the apostrophe is a nonstandard typographical variant often found in informal contexts.

Usage and nuance: Dall'intervento is not a standalone concept but a functional connective used to attribute outcomes or evidence to a specific intervention—medical, political, social, or technical. It can be synonymous with expressions like a seguito dell'intervento or in seguito all'intervento, though dall'intervento places clearer emphasis on the intervention as the cause or source. It appears in sentences such as “Dall'intervento chirurgico sono stati osservati miglioramenti” or “Le misure introdotte dall'intervento governativo hanno avuto effetti a lungo termine.”

See also: intervento, a seguito di, dall' (variants of prepositional phrases).

Note: In languages or contexts outside Italian, the exact form and acceptability may vary; in Italian, dall'intervento is the correct standard spelling.
