Matta Italian Language Tip! – Ferragosto Edition

Prepositions Matter!

Italian Prepositions can be Tricky but with
practice you will get the hang of them!

Here’s a fun language tip: in English we go “on” vacation, but in Italian you go “in vacanza”—literally “in holiday.”

VADO IN VACANZA. → I’M GOING ON HOLIDAY.

And keep your eyes peeled for shop signs saying Chiudiamo per ferie—“We’re closed for vacation.” Just don’t mix up ferie (time off work) with fiere (fairs), or you might picture the bakery taking its bread to a carnival instead of the seaside!

So when August 15 rolls around, slip into Italian mode: put yourself in vacanza—and preferably in spiaggia with a gelato in hand!

Check out more language learning tips at the end of each StudentessaMatta.com post!
