Sta per <care of> ed è usato per spedire una lettera quando tale lettera deve passare per un intermediario (che si <prende cura> di essa)


Es.

Anna c/o Bob (“Anna at Bob's address”)
Send your mail to me c/o Mr. John Smith.
Could you please send this package to Mr. John Smith, care of the Northwest Shelter?
“But he sent it to you, didn't he?” “No, he sent it to himself c/o me.”

[edit] Usage notes

Care of, usually abbreviated as c/o on envelopes, signifies an intermediary who is responsible for transferring a piece of mail between the postal system and the final addressee. For example when the addressee has no standard address, is under a corporate mail system, or is being manually forwarded mail sent to a more accessible location.
