There comes a point when you're learning Italian when knowing the translation of a word simply isn't enough. Understanding Italian language and culture means going beyond the dictionary. You can know that tavola means table. You can learn that magari sometimes means maybe. You can be told that pronto means ready. And you can dutifully memorize that in bocca al lupo is what Italians say when they want to wish someone good luck. But none of that necessarily tells you what those words actually mean when you hear Italians use them. BUT:
Margherita Berti, language teacher and creator of Italian Matters, has a BRAND NEW book that just came out TODAY August 11: Italian History & Culture Through Language that takes you deeper and explores 200 Italian words and expressions that look at the culture, history, habits, and ways of thinking behind them.
Join the episode today to find out all the details through our fun and engaging Italian language chat! AND be the first to grab the book: link in the show notes that accompany this episode.
