We visit some of the narrow alleys with names that have special significance. Arianna and Simone tell the stories of these names and show us some of the beautiful ceramic pots placed around the town.

Arianna explains what a casbah is, and she and Simone take us around to the Tunisian consulate and the old washhouse.

Marika takes us to Venice where we have a look around through her "eyes." We start out near the Doge's Palace.

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.

In 1749, King Charles of Bourbon (Charles III of Spain) or Carlo Terzo di Borbone, who was King of Naples at the time, commissioned an important campaign of archeological digs in an area near that city. Marika tells us the story.

The Villa San Marco is an amazingly well-preserved luxury villa from the Augustan period, with a wonderful panoramic view of Vesuvius and the gulf of Naples. Marika shows us around the four nuclei of the villa.

To take a break from the hustle and bustle of Rome, there is a place waiting for you, just 40 minutes away, where horses and cows graze in the wild, and where there is plenty of interesting flora and fauna to observe: The Sorbo Valley.

And here are some guessing games to enrich your vocabulary. Test yourself to see if you know family relationships or animals, but above all, have fun learning!

In this video, Irene talks about the Rialto Bridge, the most famous and important of the bridges that cross the Grand Canal in Venice.

Serena tells us a little bit about Yabla and some of its special features, notably, the option for slow and loop listening, and captions that can be visible or hidden.

After the recap from the previous episode, the kids get to work on the cake they have to make in order to beat Davide and gain permission to use his kitchen for practice.

Khadyha sings her beautiful song “Un bacio è troppo poco” (One Kiss Is Not Enough) for us. Video provided by Mediterraneos Productions.

The contestants face another round robin of questions, this time regarding four specific years. It's a great chance to practice those long, one-word numbers Italians use.

Laura joins Carlo in questioning the contestants about animal traits in this elimination round.

Here we go with a new series with Anna and Marika. Each video will feature an oral quiz — just like in actual Italian schools — about a region of Italy. A separate cooking video will feature a recipe from that region. We start in the "heel of the boot": Puglia.
