THURSDAY 29 JULY 2010
First Italian rain, warm and wet. We watched lightning, listening to deep thunder boom around the foundation, rumbling our lights out. As the droplets passed beneath a street lamp across the way, they illuminated orange, and the lamp spat sparks.
perfavore = please
(io) studio = I study
scuso (informal), scusi (formal)
Mi dispiace, ma non parlo italiano. = I am sorry, but I don't speak Italian.
prego = you're welcome
va bene = OK/that's fine
grazie mille = thank you very much
Things that look old here really are.
