BRAVA

It's the Italian female equivalent of the male adjective "Bravo". it is then referred to a woman to compliment and approve her action. At the theater you should yell "BRAVA!" to congratulate a Soprano or other woman singer, not bravo (that's for a man)! Bravissima is the superlative for a woman, so you can yell that to. (Bravissimo for a man)
