Valori

Valori is the Italian plural form of valore, meaning value, worth, or importance. In Italian, the term is used across everyday language and specialized fields to denote both qualitative notions of significance and quantitative measures.

In ethics and social philosophy, valori refers to guiding principles or ideals that shape behavior and judgment, such as honesty, justice, or responsibility. In cultural and educational contexts, societies discuss and debate shared valori to reflect collective norms and priorities.

In economics and social sciences, valore appears in phrases like valore di uso (use value) and valore di scambio (exchange value). The plural valori is used when referring to multiple values or price levels across items, goods, or datasets.

In mathematics, statistics, and data processing, valore denotes a numeric quantity or data point—for example, the value of a function at a given input or the value stored in a variable. In computing, a program variable holds a valore that can change during execution.

Valori is also a surname of Italian origin and may appear in historical or contemporary names. The term is closely related to the singular valore and to related forms in several Romance languages.
