Italian influence all over the world

Italy is the 7th most economically powerful country in the world, and one of the founding members of the European Union. 

It is a country that is recognized in many important areas such as art restoration accounting for more than 60% of the world's art treasures according to UNESCO World Heritage.  

Beyond the realm of art history, Italian production and ingenuity have brought contributions towards teaching, sports, food, trade, music, luxury fashion, cinema, automotive, research, and so much more.

A few famous examples of Italian individuals, methods, and contributions are Leonardo Da Vinci, Montessori teaching method, Pizza, the Italian Football Federation, Fendi, Lamborghini, and so many more.

By deciding to learn to speak Italian with Superprof, you are opening your eyes to a language and culture that spans centuries of history and has played a major role in shaping the world as we know it today.

Immerse yourself in Italian culture and cuisine!

Learning Italian can come in handy for planning an upcoming trip to the Italian ‘boot’. What better way to enrich your experience visiting the land of pasta, Vespas, and soccer than to speak with the natives.

Italy is a widely popular tourist destination and one of the most-visited countries in the world. With beautiful cities and more UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including Venice, Pisa, and Florence, than any other country in Europe or the world.

Whether you’re visiting Vatican City in Rome, exploring the Amalia coast, wine tasting in Tuscany, or eating your way through Sicily, booking your trip with an adventurous travel itinerary is only scratching the surface.

Picking up Italian lessons with Superprof, you can develop a unique connection to place and culture. The regions in Italy vary in accents and slang, however listening and drawing connections to their respective culture is a wonderful way to deepen your appreciation and love of this beautiful country.

For example, the phrase “come il cacio sui maccheroni” which translates to “like cheese on macaroni” was first documented in Sicily during the early Middle Ages. It is also a cultural reference to the origins of the noodle, macaroni, which happens to be a Sicilian creation. It’s a phrase most commonly used to describe someone or something just right for the job! We know a thing about that too when it comes to Italian lessons.

Latin Origins

Today, Italian is not only spoken in Italy, but also in Libya, Somalia, Slovenia, Croatia, the UK, and even in Australia and Argentina. But it should come as no surprise why there are so many Italian speakers as it is one of the five Romance languages derived from Latin. Collectively there are 47 languages with Latin origins.

Sharing similarities with languages such as Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, and French in terms of linguistic style, intonation, and conjugation, once you have mastered one of the languages it is rather easy to pick up another.

There are instances where words are even exchanged between Latin-based languages. A few examples of Italian influence on the French vocabulary are with a number of borrowed words such as ‘studio’ and ‘solo’, which are directly derived from the Italian vocabulary.

Those who are bilingual or multilingual can attest to the starking amount of language overlap and similarities. Aside from their respective differences, the payoff is huge if ever you choose to pursue more than just Italian.
