Much like a [[campiello]], a campazzo is an open space that does not usually contain a church or any wells. Physically, it very much similar to a [[campiello]] or a [[campo]], the slight difference lies in historical uses and definitions. In the earlier years of Venice, before the islands had as many buildings as they do today, the campi were grassy fields located in various parts of the city. Campazzo, was used as a term to refer to campi that were untended and overgrown.

There are not many campazzos found in Venice, but an example of such space is Campazzo San Sebastiano. This campo serves as a midway campo that connects Campo San Sebastiano and Campo de’ll Angelo Raffaele.

''Via'', with the exception of Venice, is what Italian towns and cities refer to as a general [[Street]]. There are only 2 ''Via'' found in Venice, Via XXII Marzo and [[Via Giuseppe Garibaldi]]. Via Giuseppe Garibaldi is similar to [[Strada Nuova]] because it was constructed under Austrian rule and is a very wide and long street lined with shops on either side.<ref>Giulio Lorenzetti, ''Venice and its Lagoon'', (1994)</ref>

'''''Borgoloco''''' is a rare place name used to describe certain spaces only specifically found in Venice. Among all the different street types found in Venice, ''borgoloco'' are one of the most difficult to understand. The obscurity and infrequent use of the place name cause a lot of confusion for many of the tourists and visitors in Venice. Translations vary from source to source, but the translation seems to be broken down from:

'''''Borgo''''' - village

'''''Loco''''' - native place

In other parts of Italy, ''Borgo'' is used to refer to small villages. Some people believe that ''Borgoloco'' was historically used to refer to a place of lodging, but the origins for this as well as the translation seem to be obscure.

There are very few places where ''Borgoloco'' are found in Venice. There is an island called ''Isole Borgoloco'', which is located in ''Sestiere Castello'' just north of ''Piazza San Marco''. This island can be reached by crossing ''Ponte Borgoloco'' onto ''Calle Borgoloco''.

The most common type of street in Venice is the ''calle''. There are 1,712 ''calli'' in Venice. ''Calle'' is a word specific to Venice; in the rest of Italy, the typical name for "street" is ''[[via]]''. ''Calle'' originates from the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latin Latin] word for "street," and is also used in Spanish speaking countries.
