You have traveled so far to visit with the side of your family that lives in Italy. You can’t wait to explore your Italian roots, visit the place where your Italian family began, and get caught up with your Italian family. They are very gracious hosts and invite you into their home in the Italian countryside. Your Italian great uncle Gianni begins right after dinner by asking you in Italian, “come stai?” He patiently sits through your twenty-minute conversation in which you tell him everything from where you go to college to what you enjoy doing in your spare time…switching back and forth between English and Italian the entire time! After you are done, he laughs and explains that many people learning Italian make the same mistake, but he only asked how you are in Italian! Well, don’t feel too bad…they were going to ask that anyway!

There are so many choices to make in Italy! Today, you and your friends are spending the day together in Italy. But first you have to decide where you want to go! You and your Italian friends’ houses are scattered between Florence and Rome. Half of them are asking you in Italian, “do you want to go eat in Florence?” The rest of your friends are trying to persuade you in Italian, “let’s go sightseeing in Rome.” The final answer is up to you! But you have bigger problems than just finding an answer that will please everyone. You don’t know what bus or train to take from your house to either Florence or Rome. So you tell your friends in Italian that if they can tell you how “to go” from your house to either Italian city, you can do everything! Everyone seems happy with that idea…but they want to know which bus to take to your house in Italy! Isn’t that how this problem started?
