EASY PHRASES FOR VACATION IN ITALY: How to Be Polite & Show Good Manners in Italian
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 มิ.ย. 2023
- This week I'm focusing on how to master good manners while on holiday in Italy as a tourist. With some polite key words or phrases you can have a much deeper and more authentic experience of Italy while being culturally sensitive and respectful. This is easy Italian for beginners with some more advanced phrases for those who have been studying Italian for a while.

Every day I get so many emails and comments asking why you can’t locate the music I use or find it using Shazam. I purchase music licenses for almost all the music you hear in my videos. I buy them them from various royalty-free production music sites and most of the time they don’t list the performer because it’s music made only for film productions with an audio watermark throughout the entire track, unless you purchase the single-use license for $50-100 per track. I use a lot of opera so often I’ll reference the opera but I won’t be able to direct you to a recording of that specific performance that you could stream or buy on iTunes or Spotify. Hope that clears things up and thank you for appreciating quality music.
Please don't follow me on Facebook as that person is not me - they have stolen my identity for the past few years. You can follow me over on Instagram for daily inspiration from Italy and around the world to make you dream, learn a language, cook, travel, move to a foreign country, film, edit or pursue your passion:

LOVED this and completely agree. Even if your Italian is not perfect, making an effort to speak Italian and showing respect and good manners goes a long way in Italy.
Do you enjoy making Learn Italian videos? They’re probably one of my favorite types of videos you create (if I had to pick a favorite) it’s like chatting with a friend, and it’s such an organic way to practice, I truly appreciate it and I’m sure everyone else does. I hope it is as enjoyable for you as it is to watch it!
Thank you! This is so gratifying to read after working for days on this video. 😊
Sorry, I didn’t answer your question. Yes, I love making them because I understand so intimately the frustration of wanting to be fluent and I really feel passionate about helping fellow language lovers. I really enjoy pushing myself to design the perfect lesson that would have helped me all those years ago. 😊
@@KylieFlavell Haha you don’t have to apologize, thank you for taking the time to respond to as many comments as you can. Get some rest when you can, you deserve it 🌙 and I’m glad you enjoy it! I feel the same when I teach ASL or Spanish to my friends, it’s gratifying knowing you’re helping people who love a language just as much as you 💛
If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.
That's me in chat alright no one talks like me 💪💪💪💪💪🎇🎇💃💃💃💃🥳🥳🥳🥳💥💥🎉🎉👑😉💪💪🙏🙏🚨⏰🚨⏰🚨⏰🚨⏰🤣🤣🤣🤣✝️🏆🏆🏆💃💃💃💃🔥🔥🔥😎🤯🌈💯🎯🙏🍿🎥📖
I love that Thank you for sharing with us.
Permesso a lovely word that I never forgot - and reused instantly last week when having a wonderful time in Trieste.
A smile speaks in all languages! Thank you for your beautiful videos!
Another exceptional Italian lesson. Just the other day, I was waiting for a salesman to be free at a store and an older gentleman was standing nearby. I didn't in know how to ask if he was in line, so I asked, "Aspetta." He hesitated, so I knew it wasn't quite right, but with my hand gestures he got it and nodded affirmatively. Now, I can ask "È in fila?" Living in Italy for a year now, I hear so many coloquial phrases that are favored. Thanks for all these new ones.
😊😊😊
Kylie, I was sitting thinking 'I am so looking forward to Kylie's next video' and five minutes later this one arrived! Thank you so much for the tips; they are always so useful and you are so good at explaining stuff. I shall rewatch multiple times and write it all down in my Italian notebook, which has a 'Kylie' section!
Ohhh so touched! Thank you Ann!
Grazie!! The plane to Italy leaves tomorrow morning! Knowing how to be polite is such a valuable skill.
It was 1am, I couldnt sleep, the night before flying out to Rome and a week's tour of Abruzzo, when I came across this video. I understand and read Italian but speaking it is harder as it's not my strongest language (Spanish, Portuguese), tho Italy is my favourite place in the world.
What a good video, how very helpful! And you are delightfu, and very lovelyl. I could be your mum, and unlikely now to move to Italy,, but I'm subscribing to your channel to learn more about the country I love, from you. Thank you for sharing your life here.
This is the Most useful "Italian for travelers" video I've ever seen. Thank you so much for using real world examples and simple phrases to help us tourists be the best, most polite we can while traveling to Italy!
Hello Kim how are you. Greetings from Ireland. Yes Italy is lovely. Your comment is very nice. I wish you a great day 👍🙏🌹 Michael
❤This is a wonderful series! Thank you for your generosity in teaching us these helpful phrases. I know that your days are so busy now. But, I would love to see short scenes where you are demonstrating these phrases in real life (at the market, with a neighbor or friend, with your husband, etc.). Thank you for putting so much time and effort into making every video cinematic and beautiful! Brava!
Mille grazie! Helpful lesson. And the setting, flowers, trellis on the building, birds singing, so beautiful and pulls me back to Italy.❤
Hello beautiful, talented Kylie! We are headed off to a wedding in Ravello in September, and after the wedding off to the island of Ischia. My first language was Italian.. then I went to school and lost my Italian and learned my English here in California. My beautiful Mamma Angela is now deceased, and I have no one to practice my Italian with. However, it has remained within me…as broken as it is. I come to Italy so very often, and I travel through all parts of my beloved Italy! Even though my Italian is broken, people are kind to me. I’ve never had any issues, and I so appreciate all these beautiful phrases and words. As I’m learning your words, I’m thinking 🤔, well , if you hadn’t been taught these proper words by Kylie, how would you have said these phrases in your way and ultimately whether I remember your beautiful Proper Italian, or my broken Italian, I think I manage quite well, and I am so proud of myself for being able to still communicate as I’m 61 years old. Last year when I was in Positano, I was able to meet Nikki from TH-cam with the Positano Diaries. I’m sure you’re well aware of her. Maybe it would be a dream to meet you! I know how private you are, however, and unless I bump into you, I highly doubt it, but I admire you and I give you so many kudos and praises for all the hard work that you do to entertain us here on TH-cam and having us be with you and your family! Ciao for now and I look forward to next Sunday’s video or Monday or whenever😊
20 seconds in and I’m just in love! The camera angles, the quality shots, the location!! 😍
Thank you Jenny!
@@KylieFlavellHello Kylie how are you. Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 to Italy 🇮🇹. You picked a lovely country to be in and to talk about. Italian people are lovely. I just discovered your channel. It’s really good and as for you wow, you are so inspiring, interesting, knowledgeable and beautiful. You are immersed in Italy and it comes across. It’s tears since I was in Rome, visited Padua as well. Visited the Vatican and would you believe got B&B in a convent. I really enjoyed the visit. Oh there was also a football match I attended. It’s lovely just to listen to you, you are so full of knowledge. God bless you, stay safe and just be the beautiful person you are 🙏👍🌹😊 Michael
Given these values, if I've learned one thing from your video, it is that I must experience Italy!
Kylie: Thank you for the very helpful tips on politeness while travelling in Italy. Much appreciated.
Sincerely, Canadian Colleen
Thankyou Kylie, for helping me refine my habits! I was at a wedding in Padova recently and chatted away the whole time in Italian- I surprised myself with how much I’ve learnt and it’s happened from consistently learning a little bit at a time. Can’t wait to incorporate this lesson ❤
Yay! So happy for you. That is the best feeling, when you can take all your hard work out on the town and enjoy a deeper connection.
Ciao Kylie! Sono Nina di Brisbane Australia. Sono qui in Italia e sarò ad Arezzo dal 16 giugno per qualche giorno. Grazie per questo bel ripasso. Sarebbe davvero bello se ti incontrassi! Chi sa?
Kylie, you are a very good teacher!!
Very helpful! Thank you so much for these practical travel words & phrases.
I just got back from Italy a few days ago and really wish I knew more Italian! It's such a beautiful country that I hope to return later this year with some language skills. I was fortunate to have some Italian friends who did the major talking for me but next time I want to be prepared. Thank you for this video!!
Thank you Kylie! I suffered from terminal insomnia until I discovered your blog!
Leaving in September for Italy and your videos will be such a benefit for me. Grazie Mille volte😊
We appreciate you sharing with us, I’ll be heading to Florence to study abroad next year and I’m excited 🤎
Man, I just love and appreciate how you break down and compare the languages and how to think about the words as an American. 😁👍🏻
This touches on all I am currently learning!!! I really appreciate sharing your language and culture. Less than 100 days until my trip to Italy! Thank you!!!!
The videography is pure magic ❤
Thank you for sharing. Quite frankly, I don't see myself learning to speak Italian, however, understanding languages is a great way to understand cultures, which I love! Thank you again!
♥️♥️♥️ I agree
@@KylieFlavell 😀
I think your posts are terrific. Brava!
I wish more Australians would go to Itally and become so polite as you. I see a lot of smiles around in Australia, but not always good intentions. You seem to be different. Thank you for this video. ❤

Very helpful, thank you

💝
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
You are glowing, love!!! Keep taking care of yourself, you’re doing great 🌸
Thank you Kylie 🙏🏻… I’ll be travelling to Italy later this year and have been brushing up on my Italian. This episode has given me more useful information than the months on a learning app 😊 🇦🇺 ❤
Fantastic! When I took my first solo European trip to Italy 25+ years ago (holy moly!) I took a city college Italian class before. It did me no good. 😩 My best moment was wiped-out sitting on steps in Florence in my big black raincoat and black boots. An Italian couple came up and asked me for directions! 😅 Thank you Kylie! 💐
Oh, I do remember being able to understand the arrete or caution sign when exiting the Rome airport. So I guess the language lessons did me some good!
Thank you for this very useful lesson.
Excellent video. My experience in Italy has been that they are very gracious to you if you are kind & gracious to them. They are always willing to help you even if you don’t speak Italian. I have been to Italy a dozen times. It is mt heritage & I love being there.
Kylie, my wife and I were just in the Vatican area (2011) and stopped in at like a "self serve/buffet" type restaurant and I had to visit the WC and unbeknownst to me there was a lady service person there who apparently gives towels, etc. and I was embarrassed when she was looking for a tip. No one had informed us of this etiquette rule. Unfortunately I was not aware and since my wife was at the table and had the money in her purse, I tried to apologize and told her I had no money and that my wife was upstairs. My observation was that she was upset.
Thoughts?
I was with a church tour group on a pilgrimage.
Thanks for sharing these tips with us.
Take care, stay safe, God bless and love to you 3. 🤟🏼🖖🏼
Gracias por tu ayuda, afortunadamente el Italiano se parece al Español, voy con mi esposo a Italia en Octubre por turismo y tus tips son de gran ayuda ❤
This is fantastic. Will you do more of these? It is so helpful.
Grazie. I am looking for these special phrases for an upcoming trip.❤
Gracias por la enseñanza. Thanks for your lesson.Estare en Italia muy pronto. Its very similar to spanish.
FABULOUS LESSON ! VERY WELL SPOKEN KYLIE ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤CIAO !
Thank you for this, I will be using these polite words. It is so funny you should be talking about being polite and saying "excuse me", I was just having this conversation with my girlfriend about how no one says pardon me or excuse me anymore when they move to get in front of you, interrupt you while speaking, or just in general good manners. It's as if manners just never existed.. or rather maybe just here where I live. Sad.
I know!! ♥️
I have been here in Vicenza for 9 years and have learned some things from your explanations, grazie
So glad to hear this, Sylvie.
Perfect practical advice. Grazie mille!
Timing is everything 😊, My best friend and I are coming to Italy in September for 3 weeks, I have been learning Italian by myself for a few years now but my friend is just starting and these phrases are just what we needed, thank you. We are very excited as you can imagine and do not want to offend anyone. Hope your well.
"Password for the wifi..." Love your American!
Beautiful
Grazie! Delightful!
Ciao Kylie, sono Italiano e ti seguo dalla pandemia. Ho sempre trovato il tuo canale e la qualità dei tuoi video incredibile, effettivamente video come questo posso essere molto utili per le persone. Continua così!❤️
Grazie Davide!!! 😊
Thank you so much explaining the Italian language
Excellent! Enjoyed and learned so much. Thank you!
❤thankyou for excellant video 😊
You’re lovely and this is lovely🌻 thank you!
Thank you, Kylie, this is wonderful! I’m traveling to Italy this summer and these phrases will be very helpful. I’m so excited to use them. ❤
Listening to Italians speak is a work of linguistic art, so lovely on the ear. Thank you for such a wonderful learning opportunity, I have taken notes to be used when I return to Italy with my daughter. The male/female words are very much like this in the French language, grazie mille !!!!🙏🙏
Always appreciate the time and attention you give to your patrons (me)
😘😘😘
Thank you for the video! I'm coming from Slovenia, working in a shop where come mostly tourists and al lot of them are Italians. It's funny how they always expect of me to speak italian and understand them. In Slovenia everybody speaks english as a second language and italians don't even try to say hello or dober dan (slovenian). I just wanted to point out the double standards. But i am learning italian so i can be polite on my vacation in Palermo :)
Thank you so much
We will be there in the fall
Always be kind❤ Great video Thank you ❤
I really enjoyed this video! Thank you so much for sharing!
Very helpful 👍👍. Thank you !
In Spain there is the same attitude to queues, it’s not obvious whether there is one or not and you usually just say. “Quien es el último “? who is the last one?. Then you just have to remember who said they were last .
Thank you Kylie❤❤❤❤
So helpful Kylie!
Thank you so much!!!!
Brilliant , thank you 😀
Thank you for this Kylie,travelling to Florence and Castelnuovo di val Cecina next week!
Thank you Kylie so much!
Awesome thanks
Thank you…so helpful ❤
Kylie, you're so right about making an effort, as a tourist, to speak the local language... the response & outcome is entirely different. Thanks so much for recapping on these basic politenesses & for the beeeeautiful footage of la bella Italia! 🤩🤩 With love from Oz. xx
Thank you!
SO USEFUL ❤thnk you
