🎧 Mini Episode 3 – From Wolves to Formal You in Everyday Italian

In this mini episode, we revisit three everyday Italian expressions that popped up in Episode 2 of our story - each one revealing something unique about how Italians communicate.

You’ll learn:

  • How Italians wish you good luck with In bocca al lupo!
  • What una bella sfida really means (hint: it's more than just a “beautiful challenge”)
  • Why che mi racconti di bello? is a friendly way to say “What’s new?” — and when not to use it

We’ll also explore the difference between tu and Lei, and how to know when to speak informally or formally in Italian.

At the end of the episode, Antonio brings the expressions to life in a short scene, followed by a full replay with English and Italian translations.

Whether you're listening for vocabulary, structure, or cultural nuance, this episode will help you understand — and use — these expressions with confidence.
