Le piccole parole – Epi 2 – Part 1 - Di: The Italian Preposition That's Everywhere - We learn Italian step by step | Impariamo l'italiano piano piano | Lyssna här

What does di really mean?

Most learners know it as "of," but di does far more than that. In this episode of Le piccole parole, we explore how di expresses relationships, origin, topic, material, quantity, common expressions, and more. Along the way, Antonio discovers that di is hiding everywhere, including in one of Nonna's old recipe cards.
