"O" the humanity

No, you cannot convert English into Italian by simply adding an "o" to the end of the word in all cases. However, it does work in some amusing examples. Here are a few, plus a sprinkling of other fun-sounding words ending in "o".
resto - the rest, your change
corno - horn, ice cream cone
blocco - block
lardo - cured pork fat, like bacon with no streaks of meat
squallido episodo - squalid episode
spruzzo - spray
struzzo - ostrich
oroscopo - horoscope
. . . and a current favorite
stinco - shin, or shank of an animal. The famous osso buco is a recipe for veal stinco
