in lesson 4.6 under sports, you use giocare a , (to mean to play. ) what isn't the 'a' always used as in: parlare,
and other infinitive verbs. thank you again.

Ciao Joseph,
"giocare a" literally means "to play to".
Example:
-giocare a calcio
-giocare a carte
The verb "parlare" means to speak.
You can say "parlare di" (to speak about) or "parlare a" (to speak to someone)
Example:
-parlare di calcio =speaking about football
-parlare a Maria= to speak to Maria
I hope this helps :)
Ciao
