    To add since the sauce/ gravy topic came up !!!

    tomato sauce (food)salsa di pomodoro
    gravy (food) sugo
    Pasta and Sauces La Pasta e Le Salse
    all'arrabbiata spicy tomato sauce
    al pomodoro tomato sauce

    The passage from sugo/salsa to sauce/gravy must have occurred when immigrant families settled into new neighborhoods in the US, and is, I expect, an Italian-American family/neighborhood tradition more than anything else. Some immigrants translated the Italian for what they put on their pasta as gravy, while others translated it as sauce, and the translations have been passed down through the generations, becoming law in the process. People get amazingly passionate over things like this.

    Since I associate gravy with meat drippings thickened with butter and flour (something that's not at all common in Italy, though I have encountered it in Piemonte) I call what goes over pasta sauce when I refer to it in English. As is all too often the case with Italian food, there's no right answer here, and I'll be quite interested to hear other people's ideas.

    Anthony, so from what I read, it became Gravy from the immigrants to the US. If it goes over Pasta, it Sauce.
