Ready for some more Italian words with various different meanings? Marika talks about albero, batteria, and dado.

Marika talks about three words — piano, credenza, and tempo — that have something important in common. They all have multiple meanings, not just nuances, not just connotations. Technically, they are called polysemous or polysemic words.

Marika goes over some of the advanced options for customizing the Yabla Player. There are many ways to get the most out of your Yabla learning experience.

In Venice, the concept of "streets" and "roads" is totally different from most other places in Italy, so there are some new words to learn that apply almost exclusively to this wonderful city. Marika does some show and tell to help us get the picture.

When you are watching a video on the Yabla player, there are some options (aside from the playback buttons), right at your fingertips. Marika explains the first three here in the first part of the tutorial: Help, Transcript, and Favorites, which may also be called "Bookmark."

Marika concentrates on the preposition su [on] in combination with various articles to form the very useful sul, sui, sugli, sulla, sulle and sull'.
