March 26th, 2008

You’re waiting at a restaurant for a friend. She’s late. You’ve tried calling, but a loud voice who has identified herself as nonna keeps answering. You’ve tried asking nonna if your friend is there, but nonna keeps trying to start a conversation, in Italian. You shout your friend’s name down the line but nonna doesn’t understand. You’re growing a bit impatient, and then you have a brainwave. You fish your iPod out of your pocket, find ItalianPod101’s beginner lesson 7, and press play…

In today’s Italian lesson we’ll be learning how to talk on the phone in Italian. We’ll also be learning the Italian equivalent to “I’m coming”, and the conjugations of the reflexive verb sbrigarsi. For more Italian material, stop by ItalianPod101.com!

They want you on the phone Ti vogliono al telefono
