homecoming vocabulary en français
bonjour guys!! this is sort of an extension to my prom vocabulary list but for homecoming (another American rite-of-passage/school dance), I marked all the new homecoming-specific words with a “+” :) homecoming is another school dance, it’s less formal than prom is and it’s usually based around the football game the night before! A homecoming football game is a game played at home and against (usually) a team that is expected to lose to the home team. The dance is generally on the following Saturday and it’s a much more upbeat and a slightly more casual dance! Unlike Prom it’s almost always held at school!

I decided to create this cheat sheet on Italian verbs because the most difficult part of learning romance languages for me has always been all the verb forms and conjugations. The idea (and format!) was inspired by @studypuddles’ post on French verbs, which you can find here.
I combed through for spelling errors & mistakes, but alas some do fall through the cracks, so let me know if you see anything!
