What does it mean "andare"? It means "to go". The verb "andare" is being used when we talk about moving towards an object or a person. It's being used with a preposition "da" for people, an example: vado dal medico - I go to the doctor. With a preposition "a" for places, an example: vado al cinema - I go to the cinema. We use it also to ask somebody how does she/he feel, an example: Come va? - What's up?

There are also other expressions like: ANDARE IN PORTO, literally: to go to the harbour - to achieve a success!

A little bit of grammar!

And... Sicilia!

In sicilian dialect to say "go" we use a word "AMUNI". Here is an example:
Siciliano: amuni amuni ca scuro' !
Italiano: andiamo che sta facendo buio!
English: Let's go let's go, it's getting dark!

La sicilianidad es algo extraordinario, el aspecto que amo más que Sicilia. Es una actitud humana, una forma de ser que se traduce en calidad, un valor típico de los sicilianos.
