Test your Italian vocabulary with this new matching exercise containing an additional thirty words. Match each Italian word on the left with its English equivalent on the right. As always, watch out for false friends. Italian has much in common with other Romance languages, most notably French and Spanish. If you are familiar with either of these languages and see a word that you recognize, make sure that you are not falling for a false cognate.

Check the answer key at the bottom of the quiz to see how well you did. If you’re struggling with vocabulary or any other facet of the Italian language, contact the Language Island in Atlanta. Our highly-qualified teachers offer classes that are custom-tailored to your individual needs.
