Word of the Week
Written by admin on 19 January, 2009 – 10:05 am -
Last Wednesday I was sitting on the train waiting to depart, reading the free newspaper. This week’s chosen word appeared twice on the front page in different articles (see below). Then the capotreno announced that my train had broken down. Unfortunately as this is not a rare occurrence it was followed by more…
caos m
chaos, mess
- Alitalia, il decollo è nel caos – Alitalia, takeoff in chaos
- maestro unico, iscrizioni nel caos – single teacher (having one teacher for the students as opposed to several), enrollment in chaos
How strange to see Alitalia associated with chaos! Another good word to accompany caos is tilt. For example ‘Alitalia, il decollo è in tilt‘.
As usual feel free to add your own expressions in the comments section.
