FALSE FRIENDS AT WORK 🇮🇹 I've worked in an American multinational and in luxury fashion — two worlds where Italian and English mix constantly. In both, I watched the same four words create the same misunderstandings. If you work with Italian colleagues or clients, these are the ones to watch: Eventualmente ≠ eventually → if needed, possibly "Eventualmente possiamo spostare la riunione a giovedì." Attualmente ≠ actually → currently "Attualmente lavoro nel settore logistico." Argomento ≠ argument → topic "L'argomento della riunione è il budget." Pretendere ≠ to pretend → to demand "Il cliente pretende una risposta entro oggi." ⚠️ This sounds much harsher than you'd expect. Which one has already caught you out? 👇💡
