Well, it’s less than a month until we leave. I appreciate all of the travel advice, and good wishes Jane and I have been given for our journey through Italy. However, what I need to know are the really important Italian phrases like…
♥ “Obviously, I didn’t mean what you thought I said.” ♥ “Hello fella, need a place to stay in the U. S. A.?” ♥ “May I run my fingers through those dark curls?”
♥ “I’m lost. Please direct me to… …The nearest Gelato vendor.” …The best pizza in town” …Where I can get the most spaghetti for my money.” …A hospital that has a stomach pump.”
♥ “My hands haven’t moved. Do I look like I speak Italian?” ♥ “Run? Why? I thought I said good morning.” ♥ “Where do you keep the life jackets on this gondola?”
♥ “Pinch me again and I’ll follow you home.” ♥ “If I marry an Italian national can I stay?” ♥ “Yes, I will share your villa with you.”
♥ “Oops! Pizza..Frisbee who can tell the difference?” ♥ “It’s ok if Piero is in Brazil, Mrs. Barone. I’ll just wait here on your porch.”
♥ “Help I’ve lost my Cannoli!” ♥ “Where do I sign up to stomp grapes?”
♥ “I did not know that ‘lasciar andare’ meant ‘let go’ in Italian.” ♥ “It’s ok, officer, I’ll lasciar andare as soon as he stops screaming.” ♥ “Quit struggling. You’re going to hurt yourself.”
♥ “Hello Air Italia, I’m gonna need a larger seat on my flight home.” ♥ “Hello Air Italia, never-mind, I won’t be needing that return flight.” ♥♥♥ And most importantly: – “Jane’s married, I’m not.” – “Jane did it.” – “Jane told me to say that.” – “It was Jane not me.” – “She’s Jane.” What other phrases do you think Jane and I might really need to know?
Also, after this do you think Jane is still going to go?
