معنی
Ending a conflict between others.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Italian families, arguments can be loud and frequent, but they are often resolved quickly. The 'paciere' (peacemaker) is usually a respected figure like a grandmother or an older sibling. The concept of 'mettere pace' is linked to the Catholic beatitude 'Beati i pacifici' (Blessed are the peacemakers), making mediation a morally praised act. In the famous novel 'I Promessi Sposi', the character Fra Cristoforo is a classic example of someone who 'mette pace' in a violent society. On Italian social media, you'll often see users saying 'Mettiamo pace' to stop 'flame' (online arguments) in comment sections.
The 'Tra' Rule
Always remember to use 'tra' or 'fra' after the phrase to specify who you are mediating between.
Avoid 'Con'
Don't say 'mettere pace con [someone]' unless you are putting a physical object called 'peace' with them. Use 'tra' for people.
