Transcript
- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Italian with Fexingo. I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna. Episode 102! Can you believe it? Lucas: I know, right? And today we're going back to the park for more sports talk. Luna: Oh, I loved the sports episode. But I remember we learned 'Giochiamo a calcio' — 'Let's play soccer'. What else is there? Lucas: Today we learn to ask if someone plays a sport. For example, 'Giochi a calcio?' — 'Do you play soccer?' Luna: Giochi a calcio? Lucas: Perfect. Now, you can answer: 'Gioco a tennis.' — 'I play tennis.' Luna: Gioco a tennis. Lucas: Exactly. And if you don't play, say 'Non gioco a pallacanestro.' — 'I don't play basketball.' Luna: Non gioco a pallacanestro. That's a mouthful. Lucas: You got it. Now, how about inviting someone to play together? 'Giochiamo a calcio insieme?' — 'Shall we play soccer together?' Luna: Giochiamo a calcio insieme? Lucas: And a common reply: 'Buona idea!' — 'Good idea!' Luna: Buona idea! So if someone asks me 'Giochi a tennis?', I can say 'Gioco a tennis.' Or 'Non gioco a tennis.' Lucas: Right. Let's practice. Luna, 'Giochi a calcio?' Luna: Non gioco a calcio. Gioco a tennis. Lucas: Ottimo! Now, let's try a mini conversation. I'll be me, you be you. Ciao Luna! Giochi a calcio? Luna: Ciao Lucas! No, non gioco a calcio. Gioco a tennis. E tu? Lucas: Gioco a calcio e a tennis. Giochiamo a tennis insieme? Luna: Buona idea! Lucas: See? That was a whole conversation.
