Usage notes
edit
  • While reparto and elenco are near-synonyms, there is a distinction in connotation. Reparto emphasises the roles played by the cast. It almost combines the concepts of the actors and the characters. Elenco strictly emphasises the whole group of actors without factoring in their roles. For example, elenco is used in reference to a red-carpet event, whereas reparto is used when listing off the cast and crew.
