Scartano

Scartano is a term that can refer to more than one use in Italian. In linguistics, scartano is the third-person plural present indicative form of the verb scartare, meaning to discard, remove, or reject. It appears in everyday Italian, for example in statements describing actions where items or options are being discarded.

As a toponym, Scartano is used as a place name for small localities in Italy. These are typically unincorporated areas or hamlets within larger municipalities and are not independently governed as municipalities. Because they are small and not widely documented in national gazetteers, information about Scartano as a geographic entity tends to be limited to regional maps or local histories. Some regional sources may refer to a locality named Scartano within certain provinces, but precise boundaries and administrative status can vary by source and over time.

Because of its dual use, Scartano is best treated as a name with two common senses: a verb-form in Italian and a geographic toponym used in local contexts. For readers seeking detailed information about a specific Scartano, it is advisable to consult regional geographic resources or to specify the province or municipality in question.
