Rad se bavi analizom talijanskih poslovica koje sadržavaju
leksem more. Korpus obuhvaća ukupno 29 poslovica iz različitih izvora,
podijeljenih u četiri tematske grupe. Ponuđena su pojašnjenja njihova ...značenja,
hrvatski ekvivalenti, gdje je to bilo moguće, te stilska analiza. Doprinos ovog
rada je u tome što se, za razliku od dosadašnjih sličnih radova, on ne fokusira
na kontrastivnu analizu već pruža uvid u semantički opseg leksema more u talijanskom
jeziku. Važnost poznavanja dosega neke riječi preduvjet je njene pravilne
uporabe, dok je poznavanje poslovica i pozadinskih slika kojima su uvjetovane
temelj pravilne percepcije kulture u kojoj su nastale. Leksem more punoznačnica
je s glavnim i više izvedenih značenja koja se, uglavnom, prenose metonimijom i
metaforom, što potvrđuje široki opseg semantičkog polja riječi.
The paper analyses twenty-nine Italian proverbs containing
lexeme sea which are found in dictionaries and on websites. Their semantic
analysis and that of their lexical structures as well as Croatian equivalents,
if possible, are presented. This paper, unlike the others so far, does not deal
with the contrastive analysis since its main concern is the semantic field of
the word “sea” as used in Italian proverbs. It covers several meanings, from
the literal as the vast area of salty water to those metaphorical as a long
distance, large quantity, or even unpredictability. Distinguishing the meaning
of a lexeme and the range of its semantic field is important for the proper
use. Therefore, proverbs, as a meaningful literary genre, enhance both language
and cultural knowledge.
Proverbs are an effective rhetorical means of transmitting accumulated knowledge and experiences in a metaphorical, fixed, and memorable form. However, they are rarely used as educational tools in ...foreign language teaching due to the complexity in defining and analyzing the structure of proverbs. This often discourages teachers and prevents their didactic exploitation as a source of teaching activities. This paper proposes different uses of proverbs in teaching Italian as a foreign language in relation appointed to different phases of the teaching unit. By inserting the repertoire of proverbs gradually with the advancement of knowledge, the learners’ vocabulary is enriched and in such a way they can interpret the an interlocutors’ implicit intentions, to negotiate the implied and ambiguous meanings and to discover cultural and spatio-temporal references along with the values of the target culture.Finally, the mastery of proverbs in a foreign language is a valid and relevant indicator of intercultural competence which is an integral part of communicative competence.
I proverbi con la loro forma particolare, fissa e concisa, ritmicamente organizzata e stimolante adempiono un ruolo di trasferimento d’esperienze, sapere popolare e cognizioni essenziali per la ...sopravvivenza. Vengono considerati validi strumenti per raggiungere diversi obiettivi educativi e per chiarire il rapporto tra cultura e lingua. La complessità nel collocare e nell’analizzare la struttura dei proverbi spesso scoraggia i docenti ostacolando l᾽impiego didattico di questa inesauribile fonte di diverse sfaccettature didattiche. In questo contributo vengono proposti svariati usi dei proverbi nell’apprendimento dell’italiano come lingua straniera. Un᾽unità didattica, anche nelle sue fasi principali, offre molteplici possibilità di applicazione dei proverbi in tutti gli ambiti dell’insegnamento di base: lessicale, grammaticale, morfosintattico e fonologico. Contemporaneamente apre orizzonti di valore civico culturale. La padronanza dei proverbi in una lingua straniera è un indicatore valido e rilevante della competenza interculturale che fa parte integrante della competenza comunicativa. I proverbi sono nello stesso tempo un incentivo per gli insegnanti a inoltrarsi in significati linguistici non sempre espliciti, difficili da interpretare e dominare a pieno.
Il fumetto Favola di Venezia è una storia apparentemente semplice sull'
avventura di Corto Maltese alla ricerca di uno smeraldo perduto da qualche parte in questa bellissima città. Tuttavia, da un' ...analisi dei simboli e
delle personalità sia nei disegni che nella parte testuale del fumetto si
può dedurre che si tratta, di fatto, della storia del Mediterraneo come
uno spazio in cui diverse culture, non solo geograficamente ma anche
culturalmente, sono state legate da secoli. Essendo sempre in contatto, si
mescolano e cambiano, si influenzano a vicenda, ma riescono comunque
a mantenere la loro autenticità. Sebbene facciano parte del patrimonio
culturale dell' intero Mediterraneo, i simboli, le leggende e le persone citati in questo fumetto sono associati principalmente a Venezia, in modo
che, con una sola passeggiata per la città, il lettore possa facilmente immaginare la storia dell' intero territorio del Mediterraneo. Nell`articolo
si cerca di provare che la lettura di questa opera non può essere passiva perché Pratt chiede dal lettore di esplorare attivamente simboli, personaggi ed eventi menzionati in Favola.

Psychotypology is one of the conditions for the occurrence of crosslinguistic influences. Following empirical findings, we conducted a study to establish the presence and the effect of psychotypology ...on the language transfer between Italian, as a foreign language, and the local speech of Split, as a variant of learners’ L1. Two target groups with no prior knowledge of Italian were questioned: one hundred students regularly in contact with the speech of Split and another hundred with no competence and no contact with it. The two groups took the Yes/No Vocabulary test. The aim was to reveal the initial comprehension of Italian vocabulary. Through the questionnaire, we gained insight into the intuitive behaviour of both groups of participants regarding the meaning of given Italian words, distance perceived, and subjective perception of the relationship between the Italian language and the speech of Split. The results of the two groups were compared using the quantitative test data. In addition, the relationship between psychotypology and a successful test outcome was thoroughly examined, according to the qualitative data. The results demonstrated an extremely high percentage of informants in both groups being aware of similarities between the two idioms at the lexical level. The findings indicated that participants who perceived the similarities as significant performed better on the test. The analysis of results showed that the experimental group found the Italian language easily comprehensible, whereas the control group defined it as somewhat demanding. Significantly better vocabulary test results of the experimental group confirmed that participant’s attitude is essential to achieve language transfer.

Comic Fable of Venice might seem like a simple story of Corto Maltese`s adventure in search of the lost emerald around this beautiful city. However, the analysis of symbols and characters in drawings ...and text leads to the conclusion that it is, actually, the story of the Mediterranean as an area where different cultures have not only been geographically but also culturally linked for centuries. Being close to each other, these cultures associate and change, influencing one another, but still managing to keep the authenticity. Although they are the heritage of the whole Mediterranean, the symbols, legends, and characters mentioned in this comic are all placed in Venice, so that within just one walk around the city, the author can easily help the reader understand the history of the whole area. This paper aims at proving that Pratt does not allow just simple, passive reading, but requires a reader to explore actively the topics mentioned in the Fable.
Neverbalni elementi, pa tako i poimanje vremena, u komunikaciji su većinom kulturno uvjetovani. Način na koji pripadnici neke kulture shvaćaju vrijeme i odnose se prema njemu može se uvelike ...razlikovati. Elementi, poput brzine ili točnosti, orijentiranosti na prošlost, sadašnjost ili budućnost određuju naša shvaćanja i naše ponašanje, ali i prenose snažne poruke drugima. Kulture, onako kako poimaju vrijeme, dijelimo na monokronične i polikronične, a razlike među njima su iznimno velike. Poznavanje tih razlika dio je komunikacijske kompetencije i kao takvo trebalo bi biti dio nastave stranih jezika. Istraživanje je provedeno pomoću upitnika koji se sastoji od dva dijela; prvi je trebao odrediti hrvatsku kulturi kao monokroničnu ili polikroničnu, a drugi pokazati razinu poznavanja različitosti u poimanju vremena među različitim kulturama. Pokazalo se da postoji nedovoljna razina osviještenosti takvih razlika, što bi moglo utjecati na uspješnost međukulturne komunikacije.
Strip Venecijanska bajka naizgled je jednostavna priča o pustolovini Corta Maltesea u potrazi za izgubljenim smaragdom po tome prekrasnom gradu. Međutim, analizom simbola i ličnosti na crtežima i u ...tekstualnome dijelu stripa može se zaključiti kako je to, ustvari, priča o Mediteranu kao prostoru gdje su različite kulture geografski i kulturno povezane stoljećima. U tome neprestanom dodiru one se miješaju i mijenjaju, utječu jedna na drugu, ali ipak uspijevaju zadržati autentičnost. Iako su dio kulturnoga naslijeđa cijeloga Mediterana, spomenuti simboli, legende i osobe u ovome se stripu vežu prvenstveno za Veneciju kako bi se tek jednom šetnjom gradom čitatelju mogla s lakoćom dočarati povijest cijeloga prostora. U radu smo pokušali dokazati kako Pratt ne dopušta pasivno čitanje stripa, nego od čitatelja traži aktivno istraživanje svega onog što spominje u Bajci.
