Eating out is a fundamental part of Italian culture.

Even in modern restaurants in big cities, such as Milan or Rome, communication remains warm and direct.

Knowing how to say *Good evening*, *I would like to order*, or *The bill, please* is not only necessary to make yourself understood, but to really get into the spirit of the place.

Many places today also have the *digital menu* with QR code, but the waiter always remains the point of reference.

At the Italian restaurant - Al ristorante italiano

Viaggiare in treno in Italia è una delle esperienze più autentiche per chi vuole conoscere il Paese.
Le stazioni sono punti centrali nelle città e collegano in modo efficiente le principali destinazioni.
Saper dire A che ora parte il treno per Roma? o Da che binario parte? è fondamentale per muoversi con sicurezza.
In molte stazioni troverai biglietterie automatiche con istruzioni anche in inglese, ma usare qualche parola italiana ti farà sentire più a tuo agio.
Ricorda che i treni italiani sono numerati e che il biglietto va convalidato prima di salire, se viaggi con compagnie regionali.
Fare attenzione ai piccoli dettagli — come chiedere Questo posto è libero? — ti aiuterà a vivere il viaggio con calma, come un vero italiano.

Your first travel in Italy | How to figure it out? Absolute beginner

Learning Italian can feel exciting… and sometimes, a little confusing — right? 💭
Especially when you come across expressions that sound almost the same,
but actually mean something a bit different.

Today, we’re looking at one of those classic Italian pairs:
👉 “Quanto costa” and “Quant’è.”

Both are super common when you’re out shopping, ordering a coffee, or paying the bill —
but they’re not always used in the same way.

So, if you’ve ever hesitated between the two… don’t worry — you’re definitely not alone.
Let’s break it down together, step by step.

🟢 In this episode, we’ll explore the meaning, the grammar, and the usage of both expressions —
with examples and a bit of cultural context,
so you can confidently use them in real-life conversations.




“Quanto costa” vs. “Quant’è”: What’s the difference?

One of the most charming features of the Italian language is its apparent clarity. Unlike English, Italian is often described as a phonetic language: words are usually pronounced exactly as they are written.
Yet even in this musical and “transparent” tongue, there are exceptions—letters that fade, soften, or vanish depending on dialect, speed, or etymology. These are Italy’s hidden sounds, traces of the language’s long evolution from Latin to modern speech.

Let’s uncover some of the most interesting cases.
