Italian Vocabulary: Describing Appearance (2)

And here are a few more words for describing people’s appearance, which somehow didn’t make it onto the other page on this topic…

il pizzetto [goatee]
le basette [sideboards]

la pelle [skin]
scura [dark]
chiara [pale]
olivastra [olive]

le guance [cheek]

le sopraciglia [eyebrows]
le ciglia [eyelashes]

OK, that was a pretty short additional list.

Clearly a lot of words are missing, right? I can think of plenty – chin, tooth/teeth, nostril, tongue, lips and so on.

STUDY TIP

Get a sheet of A4 paper and draw a picture of a face with as many details as you can think of (it doesn’t need to be a masterpiece…)

Now label it using the words you have learnt here and from the previous page. Fill in any gaps from a good online dictionary!
