Hello everyone!
This entry will be about two quite random observations I have made and are kind of interesting.
Chemistry: Yes. I knew that Chemistry would be taught in Italian. But I was not expecting the periodic table of elements to be different. I mean, I though it was so universal.
Tavola Periodica degli Elementi
"Hydrogen" is pronounced "idrogeno"
"groups" and "periods"
They are still separated by "non metalli" semi-metalli" and "metalli" or in English, non metals, metalloids, and metals.
In houses: This is another observation I have made. When Italians paint their walls, they do not paint the whole thing. They leave a line of white across the top.
Well, I just thought those were two interesting little tidbits of information.
Hope you are enjoying my blog! :)

Wow! I thought it was universal too! Interesting on the ceiling paint too!
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely weird seeing all the elements in another language. I though they were foreign enough in English!
