Learn Italian with ItalianPod101.com! Ah, it’s almost summertime in Italy, and you are looking for things to do. You go to the library to check out some books on places to visit outside Italy, but you’re not sure how much it will cost to travel. Moreover, your Italian employer is only giving you two weeks off this year, so you want to spend them wisely. You decide maybe you’ll stay close to home and travel through the Italian countryside, and you suggest that idea to a few friends of yours. To your surprise, one of your compatriots suggests in Italian, “I have a better idea.” You respond in Italian, “Oh yeah? What’s that?” Your friend tells you in Italian, “Let’s create our own Italian carnival like the Romans used to hold! The Romans used to celebrate by gambling, playing pranks, and meeting up with ladies in all sorts of clandestine ways.” You reply in Italian, “Sounds scandalous. I’m in!”
