A casa

At home

Being at one's residence.

🌍

문화적 배경

The 'casa' is the ultimate social hub. Being invited for a 'spaghettata' at someone's home is a sign of deep trust. In the South, 'casa' often refers to the extended family building where multiple generations might live on different floors. Due to economic factors, many Italians live 'a casa' with parents until their 30s, leading to a strong bond with the family home. Many famous Italian films use 'casa' in the title to evoke feelings of family drama or nostalgia.

💡

The No-Article Rule

Just remember: Home is where the 'LA' isn't. Never say 'alla casa' for your own home.

⚠️

Possessive Placement

Always put 'mia', 'tua', or 'sua' AFTER 'casa' in this phrase. 'A casa mia' sounds native; 'A mia casa' sounds like a translation.

State vs. Motion

Don't overthink the preposition. 'A' works for both 'at' and 'to'. It's your all-in-one home preposition.

자주 묻는 질문

5 질문

In Italian, certain common locations like 'casa', 'scuola', and 'teatro' drop the article when used with the preposition 'a'. It's a linguistic shortcut for familiar places.

Yes, but it's less common. It emphasizes that you are inside the building (perhaps hiding from rain) rather than just being 'at home'.

You say 'Vado a casa di [nome]'. For example: 'Vado a casa di Marco'.

It's neutral. You can use it with your boss or your best friend. In very formal documents, you might see 'presso la propria residenza'.

Both! Italian uses 'a' for both location and destination. Context tells you which one it is.
