From October 17thto 23rd, during the 22nd“Week of Italian Language in the World”, a series of events were held both online and in-person by the Consulate-General of Italy in Chongqing together with universities in Chongqing and Chengdu,which presented the various shades of the glamorous Italian language and culture. Such events have given the young people in Chongqing a better understanding and knowledge of the Italian culture and language and enhanced the exchange and mutual trust between youth in Chongqing and Italy.
Themed “Italian and Young People”, the 22ndWeek of Italian Language in the World aims to explore the relationship between Italian language and youth and how the way the younger generation speak Italian and communicate has changed. Guido Bilancini,Consul-General of Italy in Chongqing, said at the online opening ceremony that this is a special way to closely observe the forms and methods of communication in a highly digitalized age. In addition to “Italian and Young People”, this year’s Week of Italian Language in the World also includes a sub-theme“Excuse Me? I Don’t Follow You”, which reflects the generation gap in terms of language not only between the younger and older generations, but also among the younger generation themselves.
