Tecnologici

Tecnologici is the plural form of the Italian adjective tecnologico, meaning related to technology or technological. The term is used across disciplines to describe objects, processes, fields, or people associated with technology, engineering, or applied sciences. Its etymology traces the Italian form of Latin technologicus, ultimately from the Greek roots techne (craft, art) and logia (study, discourse).

In Italian usage, tecnologici appears in a broad range of expressions. Common collocations include prodotti tecnologici (technological products), settore tecnologico (technology sector), applicazioni tecnologiche (technological applications), and studi tecnologici (technological studies). In education, the phrase indirizzi tecnologici denotes technical tracks within secondary schools, while in industry it characterizes technology-driven activities and sectors. The adjective can modify both concrete nouns and abstract concepts, and it is frequently employed to emphasize modern, innovative, or digital aspects of a topic.

In English, technologici is typically translated as technological or technology-related when used as an adjective. When used as a noun, the word is much less common in Italian, and more precise terms such as tecnologi or tecnologi may be used in specific contexts. Overall, the term remains common in contemporary Italian for describing advances, products, and discussions centered on technology, innovation, and the modernization of society.
