Italian Proverbs

Italian proverbs - An app for expressions of popular wisdom

The standard Italian language has a poetic and literary origin in the twelfth century, and the modern standard of the language was largely shaped by relatively recent events.

Italian is spoken as a native language by 59 million people in the EU, mainly in Italy, and as a second language by 14 million. Including the Italian speakers in non-EU European countries (such as Switzerland and Albania) and on other continents, the total number of speakers is around 85 million.

Proverbs are short expressions of popular wisdom, in the form of a general observation about the world or a bit of advice, sometimes more nearly an attitude toward a situation.

The app brings up a proverb each time you open it, and users can refresh to see different proverbs. It can also be configured to remind at a set time everyday. The app can also be used to take a picture with the proverb appearing as a caption!

A repository like this app can help connect the old and new generations and help them be appreciative of each other. Swipe while using the camera to change caption.

With this simple application you can:

• Swipe from one proverb to the next
• Turn on clock mode to see proverbs auto refresh
• Share the proverb on Twitter and Facebook
• Take a picture with the proverb as a caption. Swipe to change the proverb while taking a picture.
