A1🔤 Letters T–Z
Italian word
università
university
Looks like
university
an institution of higher education
⚠️ The trap
True cognate, but in Italian you go 'all'università' (to university) without saying 'the university of a specific city' in casual speech. Also, Italian students say 'faccio l'università' not 'vado all'università' sometimes.
To say "an institution of higher education" in Italian:
università (same meaning)
"università" in English means:
university
Example
"Studio all'università di Bologna."
"I study at the University of Bologna."
