Usage notes

• In Italian, lasagna refers to one flat sheet of pasta and its plural form, lasagne, refers to the dish. This distinction is also observed in English, but only rarely in American English.
• When the dish is referred to as lasagne (rather than lasagna), lasagnes is sometimes found as the plural form, referring to multiple dishes or varieties.
