Usage notes

 * Nowadays the word ratto, when related to a kidnapping, is only used regarding the abduction of helpless female figures in classical literature (the most common one is il ratto delle Sabine, ); otherwise it sounds rather antique, if not weird, to a native speaker. For a common, neutral term for kidnapping, see rapimento.
