Join Francesca from the Coffee Break Italian team for a coffee break and get ready to improve your Italian over just 10 minutes.


In this little espresso lesson, Francesca explores one of Italy’s favourite pastimes: giocare a carte, playing cards! You’ll also pick up useful phrases like fare le carte (to shuffle the cards), un mazzo (a deck), and even a fun memory trick, come quando fuori piove, to help you remember the order of the suits. ♣️♥️♦️♠️
