  1. duomo

    A "duomo" is an Italian term for a cathedral, specifically the main church in a city that serves as the seat of a bishop. It is derived from the Latin word 'domus', meaning house, particularly in reference to 'Domus Dei', house of God. The term is most commonly used in Italy, where many cities have a church known as "Il Duomo".

Webster Dictionary

  1. Duomonoun

    a cathedral. See Dome, 2

  2. Etymology: [It. See Done.]

  1. Duomo

    Duomo is a term for a cathedral church. The formal word for a church that is currently a cathedral is cattedrale; a Duomo may be either a present or a former cathedral. Some, like the Duomo of Monza, have never been cathedrals, although old and important. Many people refer to particular churches simply as "Il Duomo" or "The Duomo", without regard to the full proper name of the church. Similar words exist in other languages: Dom, Dóm, Dôme, Domkirke, Dómkirkja,Domo Domkyrka, Domkirke, Doms, Toomkirik, Tum, and Tuomiokirkko. Also in these languages the respective terms do not necessarily refer to a church functioning as a cathedral, but also to proto-cathedrals or simply prominent church buildings, which have never been a cathedral in the exact sense of that word. In German the term Dom became the synecdoche, used - pars pro toto - for most existing or former collegiate churches. Therefore the uniform translation of these terms into English as cathedrals may not always be appropriate and should be used on a contextual basis.

Chambers 20th Century Dictionary

  1. Duomo

    dū-ō′mo, n. a cathedral. [It. See Dome.]

Examples of duomo in a Sentence

  1. Andrea Bocelli:

    I'm honoured and happy to answer 'Si' to the invitation of the City and the Duomo of Milan. I believe in the strength of praying together; I believe in the Christian Easter, a universal symbol of rebirth that everyone – whether they are believers or not – truly needs right now.

  2. Andrea Bocelli:

    The Duomo will be completely empty. This, on its own, already makes the situation abnormal, but in this case, and I repeat, as this won't be a concert and it won't be a performance, it will be a prayer and as a consequence it will not be important who is present physically but rather who wants to be with me spiritually in that moment.
