Using the Internet and Social Media in Italian

Welcome to Unit 8! Today, we will explore how to talk about everyday digital activities in Italian, from browsing websites to sharing posts and scrolling through your feed.

Key Vocabulary & Verbs

To talk about what you do online, you need verbs like navigare (to surf/browse), condividere (to share), and pubblicare (to post/publish). Nouns such as il post (the post), il profilo (the profile), and il commento (the comment) help you build complete thoughts.

• Navigare in internet - To browse the internet
• Scorrere la bacheca - To scroll through the feed
• Caricare un file - To upload a file

Common Mistakes

A frequent error is using incorrect prepositions. In Italian, we say navigare in internet or navigare sul web, and we post su (on) a social network, such as pubblicare su Instagram.
