Technology at Work in Italian

Welcome to Unit: Work and Professions! In this lesson, we will explore everyday office technology, computers, and internet tools in Italian. Talking about tech is essential in any modern workplace.

Key Vocabulary

Many office terms are borrowed from English, but they often take Italian articles (like il or la). For example:

  • il computer (the computer)
  • la stampante (the printer)
  • la tastiera (the keyboard)

Useful Sentence Patterns

When working with technology, you often need to ask for help or state what you are doing. We use verbs like usare (to use) and funzionare (to work).

Example: Il computer non funziona. (The computer doesn't work.)

Common Mistakes

Be careful with gender! While il computer is masculine, la stampante and la password are feminine. Always learn the article with the noun.
