crumb

The Italian word 'briciola' refers to a small piece or fragment of bread or other baked goods that is typically found after food has been eaten or broken apart. It is commonly used in everyday conversation when talking about leftovers or small remnants of food. 'Briciola' can also be used metaphorically to refer to something that is insignificant or of little value, similar to how we might use 'crumb' in English.
