Ballad: A short narrative poem, written to be sung. They tell of love, death, the supernatural, or a combination of these. A characteristic of the ballad is incremental repetition or variation. Incremental variation repeats one or more lines with small but significant variations that advance the action.
Name[edit] The word zuppa in Italian cuisine refers to both sweet and savoury dishes. It comes from the verb inzuppare which means to dunk. As the sponge cake or Lady fingers are dipped in liqueur the dish is called Zuppa.
This time is so popular that Italians use this common saying: âMamma, butta la pasta!â It literally means âMom, throw the pasta (in the pot)â meaning Iâll be home for lunch in a few minutes. Italians eat a full meal (first course, second course and dessert) at night â usually late â after 7 PM.
