📌 Episode Summary

We’ve reached the end of Chapter 1 of Le Pagine del Passato! In this special recap episode, you’ll hear the entire chapter in three immersive formats—first in Italian, then in a bilingual version (English + Italian), and finally as a literary retelling in passato remoto, the tense often used in Italian storytelling.

🧠 Pro Tip

Want to take your listening further? After hearing the passato remoto version, take a short break—then jump back and listen to it again. Use the chapter markers to revisit that section, and this time, pay attention to whether the verbs use a helping verb like essere or avere. You might be surprised by what you notice!
