Ricerca: stranieri possono imparare a gesticolare come italiani?

Gli stranieri che raggiungono un alto livello di competenza in lingua italiana sono anche in grado di pensare in italiano e, conseguentemente, di utilizzare la nostra ben nota gestualità. Sono queste le conclusioni di uno studio condotto da un ricercatore danese che ha testato la capacità di alcuni studenti di lingua italiana suoi connazionali di apprendere a gesticolare come gli italiani.
Secondo quanto riferisce il portale locale CPH Post Online, il ricercatore Bjørn Wessel-Tolvig ha verificato come gli studenti di lingua straniera con un alto livello di competenza siano in grado di modificare i propri modelli cognitivi nel parlare una lingua diversa da quella materna. Nel caso dello studio dell’italiano poi tale cambiamento a livello cognitivo sarebbe particolarmente visibile, a detta di Wessel-Tolvig, soprattutto a livello gestuale. Secondo lo studioso, inoltre, gli italiani produrrebbero nel parlato circa il doppio dei gesti eseguiti dai danesi.
Wessel-Tolvig spera che la sua ricerca possa aumentare la consapevolezza del fatto che la lingua è multidimensionale e che gli studenti non siano giudicati in futuro solo in base alle loro competenze puramente verbali e grammaticali.

È nato prima il panettone o il pandoro?

Posted by admin on December 27, 2016 in Uncategorized with Comments closed |

panettone_16613Senza dubbio il panettone. La ricetta del tipico dolce natalizio, infatti, iniziò a circolare già nel XVI secolo. Il primo a scrivere di una focaccia dolce che ricorda l’impasto del panettone fu Cristoforo di Messisbugo, un cuoco di Ferrara che nel 1549 in un suo ricettario parlava di un dolce fatto dalle parti di Milano, a base di farina, burro, zucchero uova e latte. Non c’erano ancora uvette e canditi, ma l’impasto era lo stesso.

 
pandoroPANE D’ORO. La storia del pandoro è invece molto più recente. Nasce dall’intuito del veronese Domenico Melegatti, nel 1894, a Verona. Lo chiamò “pane d’oro” forse in omaggio agli antichi pani d’oro della Repubblica di Venezia, un modo per ricordare l’abitudine delle antiche famiglie veneziane di impreziosire i propri pani con foglie dorate.

Il vero antenato è però probabilmente il Nadalin, un dolce veneto casalingo a forma di stella.
