I like sitting in a beach chair with my feet in the ocean, enjoying the ocean summer breeze as I listen to learning Italian on my headphones. I like Pavarotti, Callas, Andrea Bocelli, good food, cooking, most beaches! Can't wait to visit Italy, about 3 years away, and wanting to learn the language before I go. Started 10 months ago, so I have a lot to learn. I am happily married, and we both like to travel. I am interested in a pen pal, someone who can help with conjugation, etc., and in return, I can help someone who also has an interest in learning English. I have a college degree and speak English very well, and I am willing to help.

    Why Ci? Ci si lava le mani. I get the "si" as in "one washes the hands." But "Ci"? How does that fit in?

    So confused about "Lei". Do Italians still use"Lei" (with a capital)? when they want to be formal? I was told by an Italian that that was outdated and not to capitalize it. So if I want to be polite, how can I ask for help without a capital "L" ? Doesn't the word "Lei" (you, polite) become "her" if I don't use the capital and spell it "lei"? I can't say "Tuo" because that's informal. I'm confused. Terry PS Do Italians still use "egli/ella/esso"? or has that been replaced with lui/lei/loro?

    C'è un italiano fuori là? Io sto e-impostando un italiano.  Io uso "Lei" per essere gentile.  Lei dice persone in Italia non parli come quello, ed io sarei offensivo se io parlassi ad una donna come quello.  Chi è corretto?

    Why did my conversation thread disappear, leaving only the last comment? I used to be able to see the whole conversation thread, so I could go back and continue to monitor and practice what I missed, but now I can't. Yes, this question IS related to language learning.

    Il mio cane Il mio cane non gli piace cibo per cani o biscotti per cani. Lei piace bistecche. Io non sono abbastanza soldi comprare bistecche. Lei vuole leccare mio faccia. Che e disgustoso! Quello che non capisco perche. Le ho chiesto . Mi ha guardato mio, e mi ha sorriso. Gli occi sembrava dire, “Quando mi piace qualcosa, la lecco!"
