Hi everyone,

sorry if i haven't been very active.... Work is being quite a pain recently, i have had to travel a bit so i didn't really have much spare time. Anyway, i published a first post: it's very amateurishly, but i had to start somewhere....

Please tell me if it sucks,i won't take it badly :-)

  1. Latte: I'm not sure which is the standard or most accepted form of this beverage's name among caffelatte, caffellatte, caffè latte and caffè e latte.

  2. Mocha: The Italian Wikipedia calls this beverage mocaccino, but the English Wikipedia calls it caffè mocha. Moreover, on its discussion page from English Wikipedia, someone from Italy said that "Mocha or Mocaccino are words that make no sense to italians and are not used or known." So I'd like to know how they call it in Italian.

Hello,

I have been having a great time studying Italian for the past month. I just wanted to share my new YouTube channel. I picked up Italian language study after a long break. I decided to vlog the adventure of language study this summer My channel theme will be language learning, linguistics, food, culture, adventure etc. Check it out. :-) Also, if anyone here has a channel please share. :-) Goal: Fluency and some adventure :-) I will also be blogging on my new site of the same name. linguistrising.com

My channel is here:

Ciao tutti! So I’m trying to find a sitcom in italian which isn’t boring to watch but also not with complicated conversations. Something like friends or himym. (All I’m finding is criminal tv series and detective thrillers)

Hi, could anybody please help me with translation for a tattoo I would like to get? I really like the phrase’ La vita è bella. But I would like to change the meaning. Let me explain: My daughter’s name is Bella, and I would like the phrase to say that she is my life. Bella is my life. Would that be ‘Mi vita è Bella’ ? Thanks for your help in advance.
