Easter in Italy and the meaning of the Italian word Pasqua

Happy Easter from the Verbalists Language Network

The Celebration of Pasqua in Italy

Festivities across Italy typically begin on Good Friday with church service attendance and continue through Easter Monday, or Pasquetta. A popular Italian proverb dictates, “Natale con I tuoi, e Pasqua con chi vuoi,” or, “Spend Christmas with your family, and Easter with whomever you like.” While many continue to spend Easter with their family, more and more extend the celebrations to friends.
