Margret, my wife’s dear friend, recently invited us to visit her in South Tyrol in northern Italy. South Tyrol was part of Austria until after World War I, when it became part of Italy. Because of its Austrian and Tyrolean roots, German is widely spoken there, and the community’s culture mirrors that of its origins.
