48. Before & After
October 22nd, 2006
Learn Italian with Podcasts! Today we are going to learn how to use the words “prima” (before), and “dopo” (after), and in doing so we’ll find out what our two friends are going to do right before leaving Italy after a two weeks vacation. There’s a lot to do: prepare the luggage, buy postcards, confirm the flight, and eat one last delicious Italian ice cream. Enjoy!

“Gelato” is an Italian word for “frozen” and comes from the Italian word gelare, meaning “to freeze.”

February 10th, 2007 at 2:35 pmI’m getting near the end of the beginner section. Is there going to be a final exam?

February 10th, 2007 at 4:17 pmDan, there are no final exams - whenever you feel confortable with beginner level, just move to the intermediate!

Gosh we always say Gelato here when we mean Ice cream!
So guys when you Visit and you see or hear Gelato..I am very sure they are telling you that they sell or want Ice cream.
And yes also for saying there is ice on la strada..the road.:)

Grazie, and I want to add this is the first language program I have been able to stay with. It’s fun!
