Italian word

programma

syllabus / curriculum / programme

Looks like

programme / program

a set of related activities / a programme (TV, theatre, computer)

⚠️ The trap

Very close in meaning, but in Italian schools 'programma' specifically means the set syllabus or curriculum for a subject. In English, 'programme' in an academic context usually means a degree programme, not the individual course syllabus.

To say "a set of related activities / a programme (TV, theatre, computer)" in Italian:

N/A

"programma" in English means:

syllabus / curriculum / programme

Example

"Il programma di storia di quest'anno copre il Novecento."

"This year's history syllabus covers the twentieth century."
