Daniela explains further about constructing explicit subordinate clauses and gives some examples to clarify.

To conclude the lesson on concessive subordinate clauses, we look at those constructed using the past participle of a verb or the gerund and introductory locations such as benché (though) and pure (despite), among others.

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

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

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.

The Italian Alps are a pretty spectacular spot to learn the basics of snowboarding. Matteo and his two very capable students show us the ropes.

Confindustria is the main trade association for Italy's manufacturing and service sectors. This inspirational video was produced for its annual meeting, and Italian luminaries from Marco Polo to Renzo Piano are invoked to tell the story of Italian innovation.

You might be familiar with Campari Soda, which comes in a distinctive little bottle, but the cocktail described in this video uses Campari Bitter, the liqueur Campari Soda is made from.

If you would like a non-alcoholic cocktail (sometimes called a mocktail), try this recipe for the exclusive Sahara from the VintRò bar in Mazara del Vallo in Sicily.

Vincenzo, a barman in Mazara del Vallo (a place you will certainly want to visit if you go to Sicily), demonstrates how to make a drink you will find exclusively at his bar, called VintRo'.

A new comedy from RAI television. What you need to know about the title Chi m'a visto (Who has seen me/who saw me) is that it makes every Italian think of the TV show Chi l'ha visto (who has seen him/her) about finding missing persons. Is there a connection?

Raffaella Carrà, one of Italian television's most beloved entertainers, and known as the Queen of Italian TV, has died at the age of 78. Here she is in an interview with Fabio Fazio on Rai 3. Her blonde hair was her signature, as you will see when you watch the video. She was a legend. She sang, she danced, she hosted, and she interviewed. For many years, Italian families would watch her talk show Pronto Raffaella (Hello, Raffaella) at the noon hour, when school got out.

In this part of the interview, Raffaella Carrà tells about how her grandmother helped her become the queen of Italian television.

Raffaella tells some anecdotes about some big stars she had encountered during her career. She also gives us some details about a famous "telephone number" song, and the famous dance number, "Tuca tuca" that created a bit of scandal in the early seventies.

Fabio Fazio gives Raffaella Carrà a great sendoff, replete with majorettes and a legendary marching band from a Milan district.
