To be cold

Describing low temperature.

🌍

문화적 배경

The 'Colpo d'aria' is a serious cultural belief. Italians believe a sudden draft or 'fare freddo' can cause immediate illness. In the Alps, 'fare freddo' is a way of life. Conversations often revolve around how many 'gradi' (degrees) it is below zero. Even a slight drop to 10°C (50°F) will prompt people to say 'fa freddissimo' and wear heavy down jackets (piumini). The 'maglia di lana' (wool vest) is the traditional defense against 'fare freddo'.

💡

The 'Make' Rule

Always remember: The weather MAKES, the person HAS, the object IS.

⚠️

Avoid 'Essere'

English speakers often say 'È freddo'. While understood, it sounds very foreign. Stick to 'Fa freddo'.
