![Top 10 Italian Phrases for Travel you NEED to know + FREE PDF 📚 [🇮🇹 Italian for Beginners]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/1BppkVF4D7s/mqdefault.jpg)
I was in Italy in 2019 and heading back in November. These little words and phrases really go along way with the locals. They totally respect the effort.
If you say " Salve " when coming in a place and " arrivederci " when you go out, it will always be fine, everytime of the day
Yes ( pronounced : sal vugh ) I believe is a more respectful / ancient way of greeting ...
You might hear it from a local Italian shopkeeper ....
@@deepbluehue3 I didn't hear Salve so much on the Amalfi Coast or in Rome, but it was very common in Bologna.
2:55 that guy was so drunk. Had too many. Marc did not lose his cool or get nervous. I'd have run off in the other direction 🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Excellent tips . I love Italy and on previous visits the little Italian I could speak was much appreciated by the locals.
He came over a few more times while i was filming :)
@@woltersworld u should have made another video for us. On how to avoid blokes like him 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'm going to Italy for the first time next week. I've been watching A LOT of your videos to get ready for the trip!
Glad to help out. The other comment thing was spam from a fake account. Got to love TH-cam. Thanks again and have a great trip!
I studied Italian on a language app for a year before my trip this year to Italy. Speaking Italian made for an excellent experience with the locals with them being gracious. I like how there are so many cognates in the vocabulary between English and Italian.
Which language app and course?
@@davidwillers652 i'm using babbel. babbel teaches a lot of grammar. i'm using duolingo for some vocab. we're leaving in two months for our trip to italy
"Salve" - one of the few words I remember from Latin 😀
It's still very in use
This is FANTASTIC! Thank you
6:03 The Italians are awesome.
I stumbled upon your videos by chance, and was really moved by how much you seem to appreciate our country. I'm glad you had a great time staying here each time you went, and I just wanted to drop a big "Thank You".
Italian is so similar to Spanish. All my spanish classes are going to come in handy.
I wish this had come out before my trip in July, lol. I know enough Spanish to usually make the leap in Italian. Having an Italian tour guide, watching videos and just picking up words as I went was just fine. Most do speak English, but I still always tried.
Yeah you're right
Hi there 😄 Just decided to stop by and say hi!! I hope my compliment is Appreciated
Great video per usual!!! All of your videos are so helpful! We’ll be binge watching all of your Italy videos now! 🤣👌🏼
This is a nice condensed summary of tourist basic words.
I will be in Italy at the end of the month. We will be travelling the length of Italy by train. From the Swiss border to Positano.
It’s sounds so musical and fun to say too. Thank you
Really like the new graphics you have incorporated into your new videos like these. Adds a lot to the information exchange. Kudos.
I wouldn't use "voglio" (I want) when ordering food though. Could be considered impolite
Yes. It will come across as a demand rather than a request.
I like these videos! Don't know if I'll ever make it to Italy, but I like trying to learn the little bits of useful language.
Perfect timing, Wolter. I will be in Italy on Saturday as long as the airport gods smile upon us, and as with all my trips, your videos have been very helpful. Grazie!
Thank you. The other comment is a scammer. Have a great trip!
@@woltersworld LOL I guessed that when he called himself Wolters Worlds.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!GREAT HELP!
Thanks for this! Going in June!
Grazie! I'll be visiting Italy for the first time next month.
Right on time! Enjoying Rome today, traveling to Sorrento Friday. Thank you for the awesome videos!
Cheers!
Bravissimo. Grazie mille amico. Vi auguro una buona Giornata
The very first word I learned in Italian was 'domani' 🙂 Like in 'yeah, we'll get to that tomorrow' or 'sure, we'll fix that tomorrow' 🙂 It was always 'domani, domani' 🙂 Now just so you know, I was still 0 when I first was in Italy 🙂
that's funny
Very cool helpful video thank you! Ciao!
Very helpful thank you since I'm taking a short trip to Italy in a week and did not prepare. Coming from France and family being from Latin America (Spanish-speaking) it's fun seeing the similarities and the differences.
Thanks so much for context to these phrases.
I’ve been learning Italian and I really appreciate help understanding the tone of how things are said, because it makes me feel more confident to speak. :)
Thank you. I'm the same way. I thought this would be better than just saying the words 10 times
Beautiful Italy
I always dream of seeing italy!
Thanks for the tips. Sorrento is one of my favorite places to visit. One of our first stops is Pizzeria Aurora. 😜
I have been trying to learn a bit on Duolingo. Your pronunciation is so good!
You have a grasp on niceness. gotta say!
Not to nit-pick Mark, but ciao is really for friends and acquaintances, when walking into a new place, store, bar, restaurant, then buon giorno is really more appropriate. Grazie.
Would you recommend saying Salve instead?
@@great207 also
I love that in larger markets the past aisles are both sides ALL THE WAY DOWN one aisle ...
and they have a HUGE selection of ready made stuffed pastas typically available ...
Napoli was so distracting a large city , ( and I was traveling alone ... ) that I FORGOT to get Napolitan pizza when I was there !
Ten years later I still find that amusing ...
Very helpful.
thanks Jon!
Thanks for introducing some Italian terminology to our American friends! 🇺🇸🇮🇹 I would only argue about the term “ciao”. It’s very informal, and is usually used by friends, or by adults to young people. You rarely enter a public activity with “Ciao” (apart, of course, if you already know the staff members). With “Buongiorno” and “Buonasera”, I would add “Salve”. A more formal “Ciao”, easy to apprehend and very common in Italy for starting a good conversation.
however if people have a hard time learning a language or a few words, then ciao is just fine.
@@woltersworld Indeed! Thanks for providing interesting information of our country! 🇮🇹
@@MrRealgar After five trips to Italy I finally learn this ! ... Salve better with working people you don't know ...
Wow, just in time! I'll be studying abroad in Italy for a few months and I was about to look for these types of videos. Thank you :)
cool! you will have a great time!
You're gonna need a lot more than these videos 😂
Thanks for sharing this...I will be there in 3 weeks
Me too!
Have fun!
Awesome. Have fun too
Thank you Marc!
We enjoy your channel and find them so helpful. In your opinion, is it too early to book an April flight to Rome?
Love Sorrento!
Your pronunciation is almost spot on but I'd like to correct two accents and a sentence(which is still perfectly understandable even without my intervention) :
vorrei= the accent is on the E
dov'è = the accent is on the E
cosa hai bisogno? = you need to add the preposition DI. Di cosa hai bisogno?
i am going to guess that for a tourist it will be just fine ;)
@@WoltersWorldShorts Yes, it is! 😉
@@WoltersWorldShorts no doubt, Wolter! Great video as usual 👍🏻
So much like spanish.. languages of love..
Grazie
prego :)
Very useful video.
Just have to pronunciate vorrei and birra with hard rrrr.
Italian sounds like if English, Spanish, and French all raised the same baby.
Great video Mark, thanks. I knew some of these and back in the good old days of 1988 and my Europe trip we didn't have the luxury of listening to hear somebody pronounce it unless you bought a book with a cassette. As students we butchered grazie, saying GRAHT-zee. When we got back my father-in-law learning Italian cringed what he heard me say it and corrected me, lol! I knew some phrase Italian and tried to use Spanish where I could, which was sometimes successful and other times so different I wasn't understood. In Spanish for example the word for entrance is similar but exit is salida, way different.
That is the informal way to say HI and Bye.
Ok...but "ciao" it's very confidential ! It's usually used with friends or people we know well and with whom we are familiar. And above all, if you want to say thank you in our language, please not GRACIAS (spanish) or GRAZI (you need the final E) ... otherwise thank you in your language it's better and appreciated anyway!!!👍😉🇮🇹
Sorry man to made u redo the video. Love your channel :)
Ahahaha.... you make me laugh! I'm Italian and your accent sounds so funny! Anyway I have a special request: I know you've already made some videos of New Orleans, very nice and usefull videos, but I would like one more video about Nola! I lived there 1 year and I miss it so much! Anyway congratulation for your channel! Keep punching! 🤜
Grazie Claudio. We all have accents :) I don't know how many more NOLA videos I can make :) we have... what to know before you go, what to eat in NOLA, the don'ts of NOLA, 5 Love & Hates of NOLA, 10 Shocks of NOLA, how tourists get arrested in NOLA, Don'ts of NOLA... i guess i could make a few more on my next visit for you ;)
@@WoltersWorldShorts Thanks Wolter, I'm sure that you are going to do your best! Good luck for your channel! ✌️
Oddio il tizio alla fine col VENTILATORR🤣🤣
I found ghiacchio to be the most useful word. Ice!
hi ... it is ghiaccio ...
😍😍😍😍👍👍😍😍😍😍
If all else fails, just remember
“(Scusa) puoi parlare l’inglese?”
“Can you speak English?”
Molto bene. Gratzie. ✌
Party pooper ! Maybe he needed a 🍸;)
oh he did :) we chatted later
Il signore alle spalle 😂 no comment
Don't say ciao to someone who is working. He/she is not a friend of yours. Ciao in this case is rude.
Oh interesting ; a good insight ... I assume salve is better in that case then ...
@@deepbluehue3 Salve or buongiorno if it's morning or early afternoon. Ciao is fine with someone you've built a rapport with.
Yes. It's a little too familiar for my taste. In a business setting where you don't know people personally, it's better to say buongiorno or buona sera.
The accent in Italian💀
How do u say, where's the dive bars that serve whiskey and such. Or is that not a thing in Italy?
Do not say Ciao. To strangers
Deez
Meth problems even there
How did you get such a hot wife? lol
I thought in Italy you just have gesture and wave your arms around.
You need to work on your accent a bit, it doesn't sound nearly as accurate as Brad Pitt!
