Abstract :It is customary to learn the idiomatic expressions of a language last. After you are already dreaming in the language, they are typically the icing on the linguistic cake. But in Florence, Italy, these colorful, figurative phrases seem exceptionally important details to maintain the palpability of life in this city. To commiserate with Florentines daily, I had to learn these first. This romance and reality is the actuality of living in Italy.Keywords : American Literature, American Culture and Literature, American Culture, Cultural Studies
