Di, a, da, in, con, su, per, tra, fra: every Italian kid is taught to repeat these tiny words in this order, like a chant. But to learn how to use them we need to understand their various functions and try to build sentences with them. Prepositions can seem a bit unruly in Italian, but they're not random: learn them in the context of complete phrases to remember which one to use.

Download the accompanying PDF for the full video transcript, some simple exercises and a table of articulated prepositions.
