In this part, Marika talks about the adjective buono (good) which is often associated with food. However, there are other contexts in which it is used, so let's see what they are, with examples.

Since the adverb bene (fine, well) has many uses and can be confusing, Marika has decided to explain it in two parts so as to understand how to use it in all its meanings.

In this second part dedicated to the word bene (fine, well, good), Marika explains other meanings of this multifaceted adverb. Let's see how it is used for emphasis and as encouragement.

In this last part, Marika summarizes the uses of buono, bello, and bene by comparing the different uses and meanings of each word. Remember that buono and bello are adjectives, describing people, things, and places, while bene is an adverb of manner answering the question "how."

In this video Marika explains the multiple uses of the word niente (nothing). Let's look at examples where it is used as a pronoun or as an adverb and learn plenty of new expressions.

The adverb sempre (always) indicates an uninterrupted duration or constant continuity. We use it to describe something that happens endlessly or is valid at any time, without changing.

This biopic about Domenico Modugno, one of the most beloved Italian pop singers of all time, best known for his hit song, Volare, begins with a hymn to life. Enjoy!

Domenico tells his story to the audience, and to us, as he takes us back to when he was a youth. There was one movie theater in town, and he was always there.

Domenico asks his cousin for some money to go to Rome, and goes to see the town priest to see if he can get a ride. But there is an emergency, and his priorities have to shift.

In Sicily, at one time, horses would work in the sulfur mines and slowly become blind. The story is told through a Sicilian ballad, sung by Domenico Modugno. Mimì's mother sits with him as he prepared his bags, but she struggles to understand why he would want to leave. See complete lyrics (in Sicilian) here.
