How to Say "Coming Soon" in Italian

prossimamente

The English phrase "coming soon" is translated into Italian as prossimamente.

tra poco translates literally to "in a little while".

Did you know?

In a religious context, the word prossimo refers to 'one's neighbor'. The phrase ama il prossimo tuo means 'love your neighbor'.
Because prossimamente is quite formal, using it in a casual text message to a friend might be interpreted as a joke, as if you are a professional movie trailer.
The root of prossimo comes from the Latin 'proximus', meaning 'nearest', making the literal logic of the word 'nearest-ly' rather than 'soon'.

Prossimamente.
Coming soon.
This example shows how to use prossimamente as a standalone announcement.
