- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Italian with Fexingo. I am Lucas. Luna: And I am Luna. Today we are staying inside. Lucas: Yes. We left the slopes and the snowy cabin behind us. Luna: Right. Ep 268 had me feeling cozy by the fire. Lucas: It was very warm. But now we move to the kitchen. Luna: The kitchen? Oh no. I am not a great cook yet. Lucas: That is why this episode is important. Safety first. Luna: Safety? Okay. I like that idea. What do we learn? Lucas: We learn how to warn someone in the kitchen. Luna: Warnings. Like when you burn your hand on a pan. Lucas: Exactly. The first phrase is about heat. Lucas: Listen closely. La padella è calda. Luna: La padella è calda. Is that the hot pan? Lucas: Yes. Padella means pan. Calda means hot. Luna: Okay. Let me try. La padella è calda. Lucas: Perfect. You sound very careful already. Luna: I feel safer just saying it. It sounds serious. Lucas: It is serious. Heat burns. Repeat it once more. Luna: La padella è calda. There. One more time. Luna: La padella è calda. Lucas: Good. Now imagine you are holding that pan. Luna: Oh! Do not touch the handle. Got it. Lucas: Now for the knife. This one is about sharpness. Lucas: Listen: Il coltello è affilato. Luna: Il coltello è affilato. That means the knife is sharp. Lucas: Correct. Coltello is knife. Affilato is sharp. Luna: Let me say it. Il coltello è affilato. Lucas: Very clear. Your pronunciation is excellent. Luna: Thanks. I will tell my friends to be careful. Lucas: Do that. Repeat it again for memory. Luna: Il coltello è affilato. Yes. Sharp knife. Luna: Il coltello è affilato. Lucas: Excellent work. Now, the next phrase is longer. Luna: Longer? Oh. I hope I can manage it. Lucas: You can. It is about boiling liquid. Lucas: Listen carefully: Attenzione al liquido bollente. Luna: Attenzione al liquido bollente. Wow. Lucas: Yes. Attenzione means attention or watch out. Luna: And liquido is liquid. Bollente is boiling. Lucas: Exactly. So it means 'Watch out for the boiling liquid'. Luna: Let me try. Attenzione al liquido bollente. Lucas: Beautiful. You rolled the R in attenzione well. Luna: I tried! It feels good to say it slowly. Lucas: Repeat it. Make it stick in your mind. Luna: Attenzione al liquido bollente.

C'è means there is. Olio is oil. Luna: Sulla tavola is on the table. Simple enough. Lucas: Say it. Clear and slow. Luna: C'è dell'olio sulla tavola. Lucas: Very good. The connection between words is smooth. Luna: I like how natural it sounds. Lucas: Again. For reinforcement. Luna: C'è dell'olio sulla tavola. Luna: C'è dell'olio sulla tavola. Lucas: Last phrase today. This one is a command. Luna: A command? Like 'Stop!'? Lucas: Similar. It is about the oven. Lucas: Listen: Non toccare il forno. Luna: Non toccare il forno.
