... Some entertaining things to say in Italian.

So for example, say I was chatting to a British girl here in the UK, and I said that I spoke some Italian, give me some entertaining things to say (can be dirty/whatever).

Thanks very much.

firstly (il primo) not going to put dirty stuff
second (il secundo) are you quite sure you can recall long Italian sentences?
thirdly (terzo) just remember she's going to ask you what everything (erryting) is in Italian as time goes on so hope you know what your getting in to and then they want to make love in italian only..this may prove molto difficile for you being a bloke... ha, ha u know.... having to concentrate and all!

If you remember nothing else, remember this..there is no "C" sound in Italian only "k" and "ch" so dont drop yourself in it by saying Sinzano instead of Chinzano

I will give you a few small things to get you going from an Abruzzo point of view



Girl,. you want to dance with me? (deeper meaning here whisper in ear)

Ragazza (we say Gazza) Che volette Ballare con me?

Dove andiamo stasera?
Where are we going tonite?

I love you special
Ti Amo veramente buono

Dont worry about it
Non ti Preoccuparti

I am sorry
Mi dispiace (ch)

and dont forget yer English drop phrases....

"Fuhgettaboutit!"

"who died and left chew boss"

"are you talking a me?" (quietly and pointing)

Thank you for the help When I said dirty I meant entertaining (family-friendly if you will) dirty!

And I know how the pronunciation system works, thank you. I've always been quite good at adapting to pronunciation in new languages, whatever they may be. And I can multi-task, despite being a bloke! :P

How would one go about saying:

"You look stunningly beautiful tonight"

sei vermante bella stasera
or
sei bellissima stasera.
or, here in Tuscany,
che toppa!

Mr Posh

DWE

You must translate them for me guys, ha ha! I have only a faint idea of what you're saying Mr Posh.

And thank you Matty.

I didn't know people still used that expression, it something that my parents generation used to say

Mr Posh

voglio bagnare il mio biscotto means......I want to dip my biscuit.... BUT in Romagna it has another meaning HOW RUDE !!!!

DWE

Ha ha, I like that. Keep 'em coming!

It was late/early morning when you wrote this post.
Had you been out on the pull and then came home wondering how you'd use your favourite chat up lines in Italian?

DWE

Pretty much Lorna. Would be quite entertaining I thought, and I was rather drunk at the time so naturally it seemed the sensible thing to type.
