Parole guides the student to understand the relationship between words, to accelerate language acquisition and to strengthen vocabulary building.  The book is divided in ten sections, each one focusing on a specific aspect of the language: Antonimia, Sinonimia, Intensità, Collocazione, Polisemia, Inclusione, Connotazione, Metafora, Derivazione, Residui e Prestiti.  Every section begins with a brief theoretical introduction, followed by a variety of exercises of different levels of complexity.  The answer key at the end of the book gives the flexibility to use Parole in class or individually.
