Get yourself a coffee and make yourself comfortable because reading this article you will witness one of the most heated and fierce challenges in history! I’m talking about the challenge between two works of art, two sculptures that are certainly among the most famous in Italy… and in the world! DAVID versus… DAVID. No mistakes! I am referring to Michelangelo’s David and Donatello’s David, both of which are in Florence. Reading this article you will learn the origin of the statues, what they have in common and their differences.

We bring you another testimony of the benefits of our Italian courses: Olivia Smith, a girl of Korean origin, who lives in the United States, has learned Italian and has become an opera singer! Olivia started as a beginner (A1 e A2) and now she wants to commit to reach the intermediate level (B1/B2). Our Italian professor, Graziana Filomeno, interviewed her to know her experience.

In this article we will discuss a very important grammatical topic for anyone learning Italian. Apparently it seems a fairly simple thing, but, in reality, it is not at all! We will, in fact, deal with the adverbs “prima” and “dopo”, much used both in Italian colloquial, the everyday one, both in contexts decidedly more formal, that’s why it is really important to be able to use them in the most correct way.
