 | Caro Lettore,
Welcome to this weekend's edition of your About.com Italian Language Newsletter! Given the torrid temperatures this summer both in Western Europe and in North America, even adults might find themselves in search of scherzi d'acqua for relief from the heat.
In the About.com Italian Language forums a community member wants to know what the term azz' refers to, and a discussion about the partitive ne. Plus the seventh canto of Paradiso in Dante's The Divine Comedy in both Italian and English, in which Beatrice discourses on the Incarnation and the Crucifixion of Christ. Lastly, there are double entendres and malaproprisms starting with the letter A in the alternative Italian dictionary. | |
