Italian Course Beginner Series 57: SLANG [HELLO] Video Lecture | Learn Italian Language: For Beginners and Travellers

hello everyone and welcome to another
Italian tutorial today we take a little
break from learning actual Italian and
we learned some slang and colloquial
expressions the topic of today is hello
and how are you so this is the actual
Italian that we are trying to translate
in a more colloquial way so ciao means
hi or bye bye solder is the more polite
version of ciao come stai
this means how are you kamusta this is a
more polite version of how are you and
we are trying to come up with colloquial
expressions and slang expressions that
mean the same thing first of all a
warning sign here I have a small warning
sign now the small warning sign is for
slang and words that really I could
teach you but then you would be using
them and 99% of the time wouldn't be
understood meaning the thing with
Italian slang is that you have to be a
little careful some slang is very well
known and you can basically use it
anywhere some other words are not very
common so Bella is a way of course it
means nice it means pretty it means
beautiful but it also means hi ciao
but not everyone would understand and I
think that the largest majority wouldn't
same for hey now the big warning sign is
for words that are actually foreign or
that are probably used you know in very
small communities they are absolutely
not to be considered slang hello hello
these are all high in many different
languages sounds where stuff like that
it's you know you can use it and people
would understand maybe I don't know I
but you know I don't think it's uh it's
called to teach you
that stuff now come Eva this is also a
way of saying comest I
it literally means how is it going come
Eva how is it going how does it go and
it means how are you comment comment is
the same thing it means how are you
but it's only valid in the north so in
the South people don't use this but in
the north is very well spread so if you

very common and it's used throughout the
country KC teacher this means how is it
