tavola means table in Italian

How do you say table in Italian?

Tavola!

In Italy sitting around the tavola, table, is a favorite pastime.  Hours after a meal is over, friends and family are still having a great time sitting the table, tavola, and chatting.

Italian proverb:
À tavola non s'invecchia.
At the table no one grows old.

Extra credit, make pronunciation fun:

Tavola starts out sounding like "ta" (as in ta-ta, bye-bye)

The first third of the word gets the emphasis and sounds like "TA"

The second third of the word sounds like "vole" (like the rodent) 

The final part of the word sounds like "uh"(like uh huh)

TA-vole- uh
