Cultural Tip

In Italy, Zoom has become the go‑to tool for remote work and education, especially after 2020. *Usare* is perfectly natural in spoken Italian; in very formal writing you might prefer *utilizzare* or *impiegare*. Remember that proper nouns like Zoom are not preceded by an article (e.g., *usiamo Zoom*, not *usiamo il Zoom*).
