This deck of 48 flash cards offers a delightful venture into Italian language and culture. Each card has a commonly used English-language idiom, and the equivalent Italian idiom (in Italian). Those who know some Italian will recognize that while some idioms use exactly the same wording, such as 'Rome was not built in a day,' others reflect differences in dialict and common usage. The English expression, 'sweet dreams' is a good example. The literal translation of the similar Italian expression is 'golden dreams.'
