Language Is Culture: Our Mission
“Favella” is an ancient Italian word meaning “language”, “eloquence” or “the power of speech”. Venturing further back in time, the term “favella” originates from the Latin word fabula, meaning “fable” or “short story”.
Strikingly, it features in the Divine Comedy by poet Dante Alighieri, who is regarded as the father of the Italian language.
With such a rich array of meanings linked to human language, literature and culture, the word “favella” is the perfect embodiment of our company’s mission:
Empowering connections across cultures through bespoke translations and multilingual content, crafted with passion and industry-focused expertise.
