Show Notes

Ciao! In this episode we'll look at the simple prepositions, and the different ways of using "di" = usually "of"! :) ...

The Prepositions: di = of a = to, at, in da = from, by in = in con = with su = on, over, above per = in order to, for tra/fra = among, between

Ex: Uno studente di italiano. Un treno da Roma a Firenze. Studia in biblioteca.

"di" can describe possession, origin, material, time and subject/topic: La bicicletta è di Mario. Sono di Firenze. Un tavolo di legno. Di mattina bevo caffè. Un libro di letteratura.

Perfetto! 😊
