Here is another possibility, probably not listed in the dictionary. /diretto/ also, as a noun, means /fist/ but it is only used talking about boxers So in this case the meaning would be: a) weak fists (blows) b) strong fists (blows)

Are you shure ? can you give the context ? I can explain you /debolmente diretti/ and /fortemente diretti/. /debolmente diretti/ : somebodies who have to follow a certain pattern of action coming from a person or from a plan, but also have some freedom, or maybe the pattern is not 100 % determined; (weakly directed). /fortemente diretti/ : somebodies who have to strictly follow a certain pattern of action coming from a person or from a plan, (completely directed ?).
