For the radio show, Mimmo sings a very sad song, based on a story he had read in the newspaper. Note: The images of the event may be disturbing. This broadcast was one of the last Mimmo and Franca would be doing, and they talk about the immediate future as they walk home.

In this part of the lesson about subordinate clauses, Daniela talks about analogies or hypothetical situations. The English equivalent would be when we say, "as if..."

Marika shows us how to view a Yabla video in 3 different ways: standard, theater, and full screen.

Franca's career is going nicely, and Mimmo decides that he'll do whatever they want him to: Sing, dance, act...

Daniela talks about two kinds of relative subordinate clauses — restrictive and explanatory — and how we punctuate them differently.

This video lesson is about simple prepositions, especially di (of, from, about) and a (to, at).

At their meeting with the head of Curci music publishers in Milan, Riccardo and Mimmo dare to mention the word "contract." Once back in Rome, the Prince shows up at the artists' circle where Mimmo is having dinner.

Daniela explains the relative pronouns used in forming a relative subordinate clause. She starts out with the explicit kind.

We continue with simple prepositions, starting off with da (from). But da can also mean "to" or "at," so you won't want to miss this. Marika also explains when to use in or a regarding cities, countries, etc.

Carolina Raspanti plays Dafne, a girl of 35 who leads a regular life until she loses her mother and has to take care of her father suffering from depression. Dafne has Down syndrome, as does the actress who portrays her.

Before the prince leaves the gathering in a very melancholy mood, he tells Mimmo about a job. Mimmo gets the job, but has a hard time satisfying the director (who is a bit eccentric, it must be said). Franca comes to the theater to see Mimmo at a certain point, but it might not have been the right moment.

In this lesson, we look at implicit relative subordinate clauses, and how they are introduced. One of their main characteristics is that they use the infinitive of a verb, rather than a conjugated one.

We look at a few more prepositions and see the contexts in which they are used.

Franca, disappointed and hurt, goes to visit her grandmother in Sicily and writes a letter to Mimmo.

Ettore Della Giovanna, noted Italian journalist (1912-2004), interviews Giuseppe Ungaretti, considered one of the greatest poets of his time, besides having been a writer and scholar.
