Usage notes[edit]
- Barista, in Italian, may be used in reference to both men and women. For English speakers cursorily familiar with Italian grammar, it may appear feminine on first encounter, as evidenced by the existence of the hypercorrect derivation baristo, intended as its masculine counterpart.
Derived terms[edit]
- baristo (hypercorrect masculine form)
