I missed my train and needed a ride to the stazione, I went into a local coffee shop and asked in my broken Italian for a taxi.....the lady behind the counter DROVE me to the station. the workers were honestly so nice, I think it helped knowing a little Italian, Italians are most gracious when you make an effort.
Thanks for sharing!

A little bit guilty for being hitler's best friend perhaps?
@@MothKeeperif you think so, Germans what should do? 😮
@@MothKeeperpermettimi, c’erano anche i giapponesi durante la seconda guerra mondiale, anche loro erano alleati ad Hitler. E non dimenticare che pure i comunisti erano alleati ad Hitler, segretamente. Infatti, c’era un patto segreto fra Stalin e Hitler per spartirsi l’Europa. La Polonia fu invasa sia da Hitler che da Stalin. Se proprio vuoi rompere le balle con questi discorsetti piccini. Poi ci sarebbe tanto altro. 😅
My wife is Italian and while I certainly speak Italian, it is worth comparing my time in Italy with the many years I lived in France. My French is extremely good as well as my accent. My Italian is workable but far from perfect. Still, I find it easier to speak with Italians who generally can still understand you, despite mispronounciations, and have no problem mixing English words into the conversation. Contrast this with France, where even a slight mispronounciation can lead to confusion. Italy thrives on tourism and most Italians seem to do their best to be welcoming. Yes, knowing a few phrases helps and ordering a cappucino after dinner is met by a slight inner groan, but they will make it and serve it with a smile. All this said, I enjoy your videos as a way to improve my Italian.
The French are rude, I've heard repeatedly from those who visit the major cities.
@@YogaBlissDance Everyone in a major city is 'rude'. Paris is no different from New York City in that regard.
@@YogaBlissDance Doesn't help that people still pass on this generalization. Sometimes we, the foreigners, are UNWITTINGLY rude from the outset. What is considered the biggest faux pas (to use a French term) Mistake #1 in France, is not greeting someone. Period. Just one example of a cultural difference drilled into very young French children and very much a real thing.
Whether a waiter, policeman or cashier, on entering the store or arriving at the register or the bank counter, if there is no "bonjour" they will think you are rude...and you are...in THEIR culture anyway. And you may be ignored or treated accordingly.
My best friend, who is French, wrote down several French phrases for me for my first visit to France: "Hello, where is the bathroom?", "Good day, which way to the metro please?", "Good morning, I don't speak French; do you speak English?"; etc.
BUT the first word on every line was some form of "Bonjour" ... "Bonsoir" in the evening. NOTE: "Even the do you speak English" was asked in French! Ninety-nine percent of the time they responded in English with "just a little" or even if not they still tried to help or got someone who could.
I had an discussion with a friend who's been here for years who doesn't want to equate her bad experiences at the dentist or drugstore, or café with the fact she refuses to say "bonjour"! She says that , "excuse me" before asking a question or a favor "should be enough". Oh, well.
That said, the French are human and sense if you approach them assuming they are rude, or that they should speak your language...as most people will assume.
And as someone said earlier, yes folks in big cities are often considered rude whether in Paris, Boston, London, or Madrid. All these major cities are in countries with hundreds or thousands of other places to visit. Go to a tourist hub, act like an entitled tourist, and surprise!, be treated as such. Act like someone interested in not insulting people and/or their customs in their own country and be treated very, very well.
mixing English into conversation. At a breakfast bar near Kings Cross Station, London, the proprietors were a pair of Italian tough guys, who chatted loudly in Italian, but did all their swearing in English. We found it very amusing, although we didn't dare show it
I found the same going from France,where they virtually spit in your face for the slightest fault,to Spain,where they're delighted you've made any effort to learn their language and have infinite patience with foreigners. Unless you're in Catalonia.
I love the shot you took at the “app that will not be named.” When I first started using said language app, I thought to myself, “now when am I ever going to use the Italian word for penguin?” 😂
Pinguino. Yeah I wondered about that too.
@@BritInvLvr or perche moriamo ? Ok, but the app does do somethings really well, but as we know, it is important to supplement it with other kinds of learning.
@@loupolcari4083 exactly duolingo has its uses like teaching vocabulary but you cannot rely on it alone
On the other hand, it's amazing how often I've seen or heard 'tartaruga' in real Italian recently.
@@aprilmunday1152 Funny, me too! 😂
Wear sunglasses and carry a copy of Corriere dello Sport.
"Corriere di Trigoria"....Precisely ! Ahahahah
oppure con "La Repubblica"
Probably a russian spy
... o "La Gazzetta dello sport", pink paper!
@@racine1685 Esatto! 😂
I do not speak Italian, butI have been trying, to learn over the past couple of visits to Italy. It is very difficult to do in the States…I have no access to classes nor anyone to work with. We are now staying here for 6 weeks, and have been here for 2 weeks. I am learning more just from trying to talk to the locals. They are SO KIND and help me and correct me, but nobody has laughed or been derisive at my mistakes. They are a most generous people. The woman that owns an amazing coffee bar here teaches me a new word each morning by writing it down on a Post-It. Today I put together a complete sentence and she gave me 2 candies as a “reward”. 😂😂😂❤❤❤. I only wish I could convince my husband to move here. It is my life’s dream.
You can definitely find an online tutor or classes and connect with other learners via the Internet
Whenever I bring people to Italy I tell this this:
There’s a reason millions of people go certain places and it’s ok to go there too.
You will never ever be confused for a local anywhere in Europe, and that too is ok.
What’s not ok is not doing things you want to regardless of whether others are. Or not experiencing where you are as close to the way locals do as possible.
Brilliant comment ❤
I am Chinese and I lived in Italy for a some years. Suggestions from me for the tourists in Italy would be: 1) fix Apple pay so we can just scan our phone on POS and it's very convenient; In many places we can enter metro or bus without buying tickets at tabacchi but just use our phone. 2) Prepare coins in some other places, not too much cash just coins, since ppl tend to not have much rest to give us. 3) Always convalidate the ticket if we're travelling by regional trains or public buses. if somehow we cannot manage (machine broken, forgotten etc) we can go to the staff inside of the train and with Buongiorno, mi scusi... she will be happy to help us to sign our ticket =D 4) It is normal to ask for "un goccio d'acqua" (a smol amount of water) with our espresso~!
and also coins are good for donating churches if we wish to. they don't have QR codes for donation sadly. =(
Did you return in China?
No phones. Smartphones are cancer. Just carry cash and buy tickets.
@@simonedylan6581why is this question relevant?
@@Samarpanrai94 it's not. It's just for my curiosity
Hello from Greece !
I am a big lover of Italy, I'm learning italian since 2022 and I will travel to Rome this September.
I'm looking forward for this trip and I can't wait to speak the native language.
I love Italy so much and I hope to have a nice experience there !
Your videos help a lot, thank you !
Thank you so much for your comment and best of luck!
Grazie! @@EasyItalian
I would avoid ordering Aperol Spritz together with a proper meal 🍽️. It's like a tourist radar. 🍹🍹
Absolutely THE BEST for a quick lesson in the Italian basics. I am in Palermo now and after watching the 1st time I used "salve" and "per Cortesia" this morning. Cool!
Guys, be yourself, be respectful to others and there culture, do no harm, enjoy your vacation, eat what ever you want, drink what ever you want, Italians are intelligent people, they know you have your own habits and culture, you are experimenting with other foods, enjoying art…… most importantly you are spending your hard earned money, what’s so difficult about the capital of Macaroni, ohh sorry the eternal city, love to all of you out there❤
Am I the only one who doesn’t mind looking like a tourist?! It’s fun haha. You meet interesting people that way :) Italians are so nice and want to show you around their cities.
❤️
It works for you because you are a young pretty girl. lol...Believe me, dudes and older folks get dirty looks.
Same, I don't mind looking like a tourist because I litrerally am a clueless tourist. I know people are worried it makes you a target but there are ways to mitigate the risk. Besides I'm Asian anyway so anywhere I go I default to the stereotypical Asian tourist.
@@pillbugm8914 lol I’m 5’11” and blonde. I’m not blending in with the Italians so I feel you.
Most of us do not care at all if you look a tourist or not. Might change if you look gorgeous 😂 just joking
What a great video this is, thank you for taking the time to make it!
Your videos are so good and so useful 👍 Grazie Mille !
That was enjoyable thanks! Fresh and entertaining, just been to Italy for 1 week and want to go back as soon as I can, maybe live there ? I fell in love with Italy.❤
I love everything about this video and can’t wait to follow this channel. I am in a course who recommended it for immersion learning. Great job guys!!
Really useful! Grazie 😊 I would also say I can spot fellow English people as we just look messy!! Italians always look so neat and tidy. I could spot our parasol area on the beach from a mile off as it looked like a total mess with pants and grubby socks all over the ground and sandy towels hanging off loungers! 😂
What absolute nonsense.
Domani andiamo in Italia per due settimane e il vostro video è particolarmente utile! Mille grazie - mi piace di più il consiglio come vestirsi!
In Italia, se vuoi sembrare Italiano, devi camminare con lo stile di camminata italiana :)
Do not use flip flops. It is a beach thing
Grazie mille, molto utile veramente il questo video.
I just love this - planning to go to Sicily and Bologna this year and this will really help. Thanks very much.
Those are two wildly different places in Italy! Have a great time!
If I can make a suggestion... If you take a 15-20 minute train ride north of Bologna to Ferrara, you can see the only castle in Italy with an active moat. I used to live literally directly next to Castello Estense. Ferrara is a cute city and in my opinion, worth a visit if you're in Bologna.
Btw, it's all walkable from the train station. I wouldn't bother with the bus.
Muchas gracias por esto! ME ENCANTÓ!
I love your videos guys!! you make such an important impact on many people like me, whom love to learn Italiano language and the culture of Italy, thank you so much!
“Who like to” not “whom like to.”
Siete veramente bravissimi, molto utile video. Grazie mille! :)
Muito bom, vocês são nota 10 👏👏👏👏👏
Siete molto bravo e strettivo, Grazie mille
Thank you for explaining how to order meals in Italy....it's good to know you don't always have to have all the courses even though I'm sure it's tempting to do so sometimes.
It's the big mistake tourists make, and I don't blame them....the food is normally so wonderful, and you're on vacation so you want to eat as much as possible. But to really do it like the Italians....have the Italian breakfast of a cappuccino or caffe' normale (shot of espresso) and nothing but a little sweet pastry or cookie. Then have your main meal at lunch, here's where you can go all out if you want, but most Italians just do 2 or 3 of the 4 courses. Dinner is smaller, maybe 2 courses, or just pizza with friends. Or even better, do aperitivi and skip dinner....find a good wine bar that serves a nice aperitivo spread, go later around 6 or 7 and that's dinner. Then you can do gelato at 9 or 10 pm after the evening passeggiata. In the tourist cities like Rome, the American style breakfasts at the hotels will kill you for the rest of the day!
Here's a thing you can do if you really want to try more than a dish in a restaurant/pizzeria: if the place it's not very formal and you are with someone else, it's totally fine to order two different things and than "swap" or even share it with the other person (of course ask the other person first! xD) I do it all the time with my husband, especially at the pizzeria (:
Buona puntata, divertente e informativa. Grazie!
Conosco che state scherzando ma sono contento che tu abbia detto che puoi vestirti come preferisci. E aggiungerei che dovresti ordinare un cappuccino quando vuoi. La vita è molto molto molton breve e gli italiani accettano di più la differenza rispetto ad altri paesi (ahem Francia ahem)
Thank you! It was funny and useful ❤
Indeed. ❤😊
grazie mille per questo video, è molto divertenti e piacevole, siete molto simpatici!
Grazie, che ottimi consigli!
molto molto utile! Grazie！
Grazie!!! Sei entrabi meravigliosι!
About the glass of Prosecco: it's not just the question of quantity, but there's another big difference between the Italians and the foreigners visiting Italy.
I'd say that the main difference is the alcohol consumption alone, per se (foreigners), in comparison with the alcohol consumption while eating something (Italians).
In the lobby of a London theatre, e.g. during the interval at a concert, you may see a good number of people drinking wine (red wine as well, not Prosecco) and eating nothing. You would never see anything like that in Italy: so if do not want to appear a foreigner in Italy, try to drink wine only at the table of a restaurant during a meal, possibly, or, if not during a meal, as a so called "aperitivo", at a time of the day just before a main meal, and accompanied by some savoury bites.
Never have wine by itself (it's also not good for your stomach...).
Well observed but I would make a correction. I live in Portugal and the Portuguese also don't drink wine on its own (unless they are immitating Americans or Brits). I think the same is true in Spain. So it is not that foreigners visiting Italy drink alcohol on its own - it is that Americans and Brits do.
you guys are such great teachers
Thank you so much for your kind words!
Thanks!
love your style, bravi, cin, cin.
The bit with Matteo going into the cafe! 😂. Too funny ❤. And the part at 9:15. 😊
Bravi, siete gradevoli ed il video è davvero utile per chi viene in Italia.
Una piccola correzione, più per gioco: Si, per favore si usa eccome
Soprattutto per confermare una richiesta o una offerta e attenuare la sensazione di aver dato un ordine (da capo), per esempio:
A: "Vi porto al tavolo?"
B:"Si, per favore"
Non contrasta con quanto detto, "si Grazie" va benissimo 🙂
Nella prossima cita se nasco fuori dall'Italia, mi iscriverò ai vostri corsi 🤗
Wish i saw it before my holiday in Calabria... ❤❤❤❤ Very nice video
Next time! 😀 Thank you so much!
Altre frasi molto utili che ho imparato da questa app non nominato -
“La tartaruga non legge.”
“Questi cavalli non vivranno fino al prossimo mese.”
“Tra due settimane sarà morto anche lui.”
“Perché moriamo?”
“Quando muoiano?”
“Come muore un animale?”
“Un animale muore senz’acqua”.
Dopo aver finito questa app non potevo chiedere un caffè ma almeno avrei potuto lamentarmi della mortalità dei cavalli.
una frase, insegnata da quell'app senza nome, che sto cercando di usare sempre: "quando ero piccolo, non portavo i pantaloni"
non so perché, ma i baristi non vogliono parlare con me
OMG!! "La tartaruga non legge" got me!!! I'm dying here laughing. I remember reading that and thinking "what a stupid thing to learn" lol.
lol what is this app please? my bf is learning italian and I need to test him with this 🤣
@@then_comes_dudley9142 hahahahahahahahha
@@anqixue6032 I cannot say the name, or an angry owl will come at night and poop on my head, but it rhymes with Luodingo.
One of most amazing phrases i remember from app is "ne parlero col mio cavallo" 🤯😂 never used it in conversation.
Il "app" mi dice recentemente "Mario e Luigi sono idraulici." Penso che Hollywood li ha pagati.
Molto utile oggi! Grazie!
My favourite post-dinner drink is caffe corretto con sambuca 😊
Excelente 👌
Je vous adore !!!
💚🤍❤ Grazie!
I’m surprised the first suggestion isn’t “use your hands while talking.” 😂😂😂
Ciao ragazzi! I love you guys! I took your course before my last trip to Napoli and it was probably the extra bit I needed to feel more comfortable speaking and helping me connect so, grazie mille for that! On my last trip I noticed that although I was dressed well and I felt I blended in I think I showed a little more skin than the average Italian woman. The men didn’t mind;) but it definitely was very American of me. So…when I go back in May…higher necklines😂❤
Haha! Of course you should dress the way you like. 😉
I was wearing a long khaki colored linen skirt and a black tee shirt the last time I was in Florence, and two different women spoke to me in Italian, both asking directions. I knew mostly what they were asking, but could not really answer effectively in Italian. It was fun though!
I’m so hungry listening to all the food! lol. Bloody heck id get fat livin there! lol
Ciao, bellissimo video. In uno dei prossimi, vi consiglio di spiegare anche come funziona la mancia in Italia, perché molti stranieri non lo sanno e al ristorante vanno in confusione
Grazie
Very true, from my experience. Per favore, anche spiegate alcuni gesti.
Siete belli e simpatici, tant'è vero che vi guardo spesso. Quasi quasi mi dispiace essere italiano madrelingua e non potermi iscrivere alle vostre lezioni. 😉
Bellissimi come sempre! Continuate cosi!
Io mi mimetizzo con i capelli pettinati, occhiali da sole, di solito giacca e jeans o pantaloni e sempre bevo espresso 😁. Infatti non mi mimetizzo affatto, semplicemente sono gentile sempre con gli italiani, cerco di parlare in italiano e mi godo la bella atmosfera 🙂☕️🥐
Never try to change their dishes! (I never did but) a friend of mine added a lot of pepperoncini on her pasta and the lady of the house felt completely insulted by it.
Wow! I loved this video. My mother tongue is Brazilian Portuguese, and by watching this video, it feels like the Italian language is kind of a mix between Spanish and just a little it bit of Portuguese.
I could understand, say...10% of the video. The Italian language syntax is pretty much the same as Brazilian Portuguese.
LOL! The horse! So like Duolingo
haha - it's also a nightmare about where to pay in Australia too! Before the meal, usually if eating at a pub and some cafes, and you order at the counter. Table service - usually you pay after the meal, and sometimes they bring the machine to you, or you have to go to the counter. It's hard to know! I usually ask if a place has table service, fortunately that is becoming more common. I often think we look so typically touristy when we are in Europe or North America, because we are the dummies hanging around waiting to order at the counter, when in fact the wait staff will come to our table! :D
Haha good to know! 😃
Dont even try, Italians have a particular and mostly charming way of talking and moving that I dont think can be taught for the occasion, perhaps adopted if living there for many years. Trying to blend in might just have the opposite effect but dont worry about it, just be yourself. Unless that means being rude and disrespectful, then just pretend to be civilized. Thanks for these video's helps me refresh my very basic Italian.
Thank you for your very nice comment!
👏🫶👏 pazienza quando in coda per QUALCOSA 🤣
Per esempio quando acquisti i biglietti del treno 🤣. X
Salve! Tra pochi mesi sarò in Italia.🙏 Ho adorato i consigli, che per me riguardano più il mostrare rispetto e apprezzamento per il proprio paese che il travestirmi da italiano... puoi vedere da lontano che non lo sono. 😅grazie!🇧🇷
Grazie a te, ci fa piacere che tu abbia apprezzato il video! Certo, ovviamente portare rispetto verso il paese che si visita è sempre la cosa principale. 😊 Buon viaggio per quando verrai in Italia allora! 😀
The best thing about Italy is that it's virtually impossible to get dirty looks if you talk &/or laugh too loudly. 😹
Me piace tantissimo aprendere italiano con Kathy e Mateo. Per camouflage en Italia devere usare molto gesti.
Esatto... ma senza esagerare! 😂 Grazie mille, ci fa piacere che ti piaccia imparare l'italiano con noi!
The waiter reading the menu out like a novel is hilarious 😂 and true

I am an Asian American living with my husband and four kids in Napoli for 2 years now..how I disguise when visiting other towns, no bag packs when out and about 😎
I wish I saw this video before I went to Italy twice. For me my Italian disappears when I am nervous. When I was in Padua I was able to communicate what I needed, but I was terrible at the grocery store and at a restaurant. My friends told me I did well, but my next visit in Mestre I was not understood until my friend from Bassano told me to get out of my head and just let it flow. But as far as paying, I did learn late its different everywhere. However note to self Padua didn't really have English at all. It gave me the immersion I wanted, but I still sometimes panic going back with excitement to try again.
@gerardinapanceri4013 honestly I tried not to go with the stereotype mentality. My friends in Italy don't eat out to restaurants much. They all cook at home. So they didn't explain to me before I went how their normal eating schedule is..I only knew some of my italian friends at at 9pm. Sto studiando l'italiano da 9-10 mesi. I miei amici sanno che faccio del mio meglio per non stereotipare. Il mio Italiano è ancora pessimo ma provando.
@@gerardinapanceri4013 ate at 9pm* sorry. I am not good at explaining or responding.
@@gerardinapanceri4013 grazie! 😊🙇♀️
I’m planning I’m going to Rome for my birthday , I’m definitely wearing a black suit and tie with dress shoes and a pair of persol glasses
When I go to Italy, I have never bothered with trying not to look like a tourist, as I basically look like a tourist where I live in America. I don't really look like I fit in anywhere. I wouldn't mind blending in more fashion-wise, but I am most comfortable in jeans and a T-shirt in hot weather - which is what I hope awaits me when I go to Sicily in two weeks. I will definitely be using "per cortesia," and I will struggle not to order cappucino after, say, 1pm (13:00).
it is not "the T-shirt" or "the jeans" , it is how and WHEN wearing them ! Entering a church with half the buns hanging out of the shorts with a ice cream in your hand .....? Entering fine restaurants with flip-flops like being on the beach ? BTW walking around with beer/a Spritz/ a coke can in your hand is not forbidden, but VERY VERY low class....the topic of "to go" I'd conclude with "go home" ! It is not to hide to be a tourist , it is to behave like a guest , not like dominating animal.....
Jeans in the Italian summer heat? How can you stand them. Get yourself a pair of linen pants. It’s not just for looks: it’s the coolest fabric you can wear other than your birthday suit.
grazie per parlare cosi lentamente ❤️
È meglio: "grazie per aver parlato così lentamente"
In realtà parlano con un ritmo normale anche per un italiano
Un altro. 😂😂 Loved it
We also say salata for salad in arabic
In italian it is inslata
Sì, insalata. 😊
If you want to blend in,absolutely avoid sandals or slippers worn with socks.
Otherwise you would be identified as a German tourist, or from Switzerland.

Questo mi ha fatto ridere..I questioned my usage of a certain app when learning content includes “ho portato il corpo li”!!! Immagino che si debba coprire tutto!!!! 🤨
it'very useful if you are a murderer caught by the police
salve !! la parola Cioa ",e ampiamente usata degli stranieri , soprattutto latini, como me, che vengo dall"Argentina..guardo tutti i tuoi video...saluti !!
Unlike coffee after dinner in the US 😅. I was visiting friends in the States (I'm not local), went to dine out, and after dinner they asked me if I wanted coffee, I said yes... A giant mug of coffee, milk with whipped cream and chocolate on top, after a full dinner?!
We also say patate in arabic
Basically don't dress up like a homeless person. I discovered that the first time I visited Milan. I was dressed up like a punk while everyone around me were dressed like fashion models. Dress your best.
...well, you wouldn't do yourself a service. That's perhaps the most ludicrous custom the average (old-school) Italian have. All sharp dressed and judgemental AF, even if their hearts and minds aren't even equally "spotless"....I'm Italian and we chose to migrate somewhere else just to get rid of all these hypocritical BS.
How very true . I made this mistake when visiting the smart business district of Milan where every man but me was wearing a very elegant suit. I was lucky to be served lunch!
La granita è populare anche nel regione metropolitana di New York dove si chiama “Italian Ice”.
Little tip: if you don't want to make an Italian angry NEVER say "we have this in my country as well", especially if you are talking about food! 😅
O I definitely say hello to Italy
Honestly guys, in Europe (I am German) are SO many different languages. I travel all the countries, but I CAN NOT learn all languages, not even "a bit" so I could do smalltalk. Maybe you have the giftedness to get languages fast- I don't!
If that makes me be someone who you think doesn't care for the culture, I can't help! I care VERY much. I care for- and appreciate all people I meet. But my true language is friendliness, kindness, respect, and being interested. And to have fun in understanding each other, anyways. And I do NOT care for trying to not be spotted as tourist: You would be stupid if you wouldn't notice that I am one, in your country! And you would be, in mine.
AND THAT IS OK. Let's stop playing games and be dishonest, but instead kind!
Recuerdo que en hotel en napoles, me servia como 5 cafes y comida abundante en el desayuno,la gente del hotel nos miraban raro nadamas,me encanta italia es lo más parecido a la cultura mexicana incluso más que la española

I'm not entirely sure what you mean with the fashion style advice, but... Are you saying it's best to dress in a Preppy style?
I was pleasantly surprised by the British pronunciation of cappuccino.
My red plaid flannel shirt is the only clue necessary to know I'm from the doggone USA. I never blend with my red plaid flannel. I stick out like a sore thumb.

Una domanda, quando in un ristorante si paga alla cassa, normalmente direttamente al titolare o a sua moglie, si lascia "tip" per il cameriere?
Buon ponte a tutti
In molti posti vicino alla cassa c'è un barattolo per la 'mancia' ai camerieri
la mancia e' sempre ben accetta
Ciao, ragazzi! Grazie per il video. Mi è piaciuto molto. Ho sempre avuto un dubbio per quanto riguarda l’uso di “arrivederci”. Va bene usarlo anche quando non rivedremo più l’altra persona?
Si.
Si, a Salerno, tutti dicono ""arrivederci." Significa la speranza che noi ci riincontroremò ancora.
si!
Sì, come in inglese "bye"
Aggiungo che se tu dici invece "addio" (che sarebbe il termine corretto per salutare una persona che probabilmente non si rivedrà più) , suona molto molto negativo. Ad esempio, dici addio quando ti lasci male con una ragazza. Oppure se litighiamo con un amico e non vogliamo più rivederlo, diciamo "addio, buona vita". Non utilizzare quindi mai la parola addio per salutare qualcuno, anche se sai che probabilmente non rivedrai più quella persona, a meno che tu non voglia dire che non la VUOI rivedere :)
Briliante, gracie per la video. Just practicing. Its good to know these small things.
Yes, but your criticism of a certain app may be too harsh. I recommend the excellent "English as She Is Spoke " by José da Fonseca for some common, useful phrases that can easily be translated into Italian. For example: "to craunch the marmoset" which translates as "per sgranocchiare l'uistitì".
Bisogna fare i complimenti a questa ragazza perché parla un italiano perfetto, molto meglio di tanti italiani.
I thought she was Italian.
Grazie per questo video, siete affascinanti! Adoro e rispetto la cultura italiana, per me l'energia e l'accettazione degli italiani è insuperabile (nella mia esperienza).
Sfortunatamente, come un diabetico, è semplicemente impossibile da mangiare in un ristorante/bar lì senza infrangere il codice alimentare. Ogni volta che ci visitavo mi sentivo una turista per questo motivo. Onestamente non credo che qualcosa di dolce per collazione è così sano, ma chissà... Immagino che mi sentirò sempre un outsider in questo modo.
Eh sì, purtroppo la classica colazione italiana non è proprio sana! 😅 Grazie per le tue belle parole comunque! 🥰
As an englishman on holiday I think I will struggle with the only one alcoholic drink in the daytime rule. I will just have to move from bar to bar 🙂
Haha of course there are some Italians who drink more than one drink daytime, but we normally drink quite moderately during the day. 😉
Mi piace essere un turista. è un privilegio viaggiare e scoprire un'altra cultura. Trovo un po' assurdo questo modo di fingere di essere un nativo. Ovviamente devi essere rispettoso e discreto nel tuo modo di comportarti e vestirti, ma non devi nemmeno mascherarti. 😊🇨🇵🇮🇹 Grazie per questo contenuto molto interessante.
Using permesso or con permesso in the subway. Also use prego when someone else does
Those are very good ones, thanks for sharing!
Ordinare un antipasto in Puglia potrebbe essere sufficiente per una settimana. Solo in Puglia anti non significa prima ma contrario al pasto, nel senso che dopo non riesci più a mangiare niente. Il consiglio è aspettare ad ordinare primo e secondo, prima fatevi portare l'antipasto e poi vedete come butta.

Interesante! Anche in spagnolo non sarebbe sbagliato/strano dire “Sí, por favor”. Allora, farò attenzione in Italia di non dire così.
Ciao ragazzi! Puoi per favore dire qual è la differenza tra una trattoria, un‘osteria e un ristorante? Grazie mille!
To understand the differences you need to look at what they refet to. Trattoria from the "Trattore" the men who treat food. Osteria from the "Oste" the men who accomodates people (in Osteria a person could have sleep for the night). Ristorante from the "Ristoratore" the men who give refreshment. This differences today are gone, more or less. Maybe you can eat more regionali food in Trattoria/Osteria then in a Ristorante, but it's not a 100% rule.
Storicamente l'osteria serviva solo il vino e il cibo o lo si portava da casa o si comprava altrove, la trattoria e il ristorante sono più o meno la stessa cosa, il primo è solitamente meno costoso, generalmente con cucina locale, più piccolo di un ristorante e con un arredamento più spartano. Ma in realtà oggi sono solo nomi, basti pensare che l'Osteria Francescana di Bottura ha tre stelle Michelin ed è stata eletta più volte il miglior ristorante al mondo.
Ci sono altri tipi di locali, ci sono i rifugi che spesso sono trasformati in ristoranti aperti a tutti, ma che debbono comunque sempre garantire riparo e assistenza agli alpinisti, ci sono le locande che sono locali in cui si mangia e si può dormire, le fraschette, le taverne (che un tempo erano collocate sui percorsi della transumanza del bestiame). Ci sono gli agriturismi che sono in sostanza aziende agricole che servono il cibo e/o danno un posto in cui dormire. Ecc...
A parte i rifugi e gli agriturismi che sono regolati per legge, i primi hanno - ripeto - l'obbligo di garantire riparo, assistenza e ristoro agli alpinisti, i secondi devono autoprodursi quasi tutto ciò che servono, gli altri sono praticamente solo nomi che uno sceglie o per motivi storici (il locale si chiama così da sempre) o per marketing.
