My mum always said that the best way to get a new word into your vocabulary was to use it.

A performance sublime
That's sprezzatura
The best after that
Is only bravura.

Case in point:
Secretariat in the Belmont, 1973.
Who remembers any Triple Crown winner since?

Other Sprezzaturissimo Moments?

Miracle on Ice
Nadia's perfect "10"

Simply sprezz!
