Italy has given the world great art, music and food — and it's given the English language lots of vocabulary. Here are just a few Italian words you'll hear in English.
If you drink coffee, you might speak some Italian already. "Espresso" is borrowed from Italian, and comes from the verb "to press." Espresso is made by pushing, or pressing, hot water or steam through coffee grounds to make a strong, small drink.
If you like milk in your coffee, you might ask your "barista" — Italian for the person making drinks in a cafe — for a "cappuccino." The Italians named this drink — made of espresso and hot milk — after Capuchin monks, whose clothes were the same color as the drink.
Baristas might have to occasionally deal with "divas," or people who think they are very important and who are difficult to please. This comes from the Italian word for a famous female singer.
Italian has also given us the word for drawings and writing on walls and other public places: "graffiti." This word comes from the Italian for a scratch.
Some people might use graffiti to share their "motto." This is another Italian loanword that refers to a phrase used again and again that tells others what a person or organization believes is important.
There's only one word to end this article with: "finale." In Italian, this just means "the end," and in English "finale" describes the last part of a show or series — especially if the end is very exciting!

🌏Summary
 「濃縮咖啡」（espresso）是從義大利文借用來的，源自於動詞「擠壓」。因為 濃縮咖啡是透過咖啡機來推擠出熱水或蒸氣，沖出來的咖啡。如果你喜歡在咖啡裡加牛奶，你可能會請你的「咖啡店店員」來泡一杯「卡布奇諾」。咖啡店店員的英文是barista，這個字也是義大利文中在咖啡廳泡咖啡的人。卡布奇諾的英文是cappuccino。這個字，是源於義大利人以聖方濟會修道士的衣服顏色，來替這種飲料命名的。其他常見的字像是「難搞的人」（diva）、「塗鴉」 （graffiti）、「座右銘」（motto）、「結尾」（finale）也都是源自義大利文。
