Partiamo da una curiosa proposta di legge italiana per istituzionalizzare la gentilezza, per scoprire insieme come la lingua può farsi gentile e quali sono le espressioni da usare per essere cordiali.

Preparatevi a usare strumenti preziosi come il condizionale – quel modo verbale che trasforma un ordine in una richiesta: da “voglio un caffè!” a vorrei un caffè”…  tutto cambia, vero?
E poi ci sono le richieste gentili con potrebbe…?”, “mi scusi…”, “sarebbe così gentile da…?” che rendono ogni conversazione più educata, morbida e rispettosa.

Pronti a scoprire perché la gentilezza… fa scuola, anzi, fa lingua? Allora mettetevi comodi: Alessio e Katia vi accompagnano tra esempi pratici, curiosità e buon umore, per imparare l’italiano un’espressione gentile alla volta! 🎙️🇮🇹✨

In questa puntata citiamo anche l’episodio 10 della stagione 7, nel quale abbiamo introdotto per la prima volta il concetto di parole gentili nella lingua italiana: https://podcast.scuolaleonardo.com/parole-gentili-episodio-10-stagione-7/

Can kindness be institutionalized?

Let’s begin with a unique Italian legislative proposal aimed at institutionalizing kindness. Together, we’ll explore how language can become more gentle and which expressions to choose for a more polite tone.

Get ready to use valuable tools like the conditional – that verbal mood which turns an order into a request. For example, changing “voglio un caffè!” to “vorrei un caffè” makes all the difference, doesn’t it?

There are also polite requests such as “potrebbe…?”, “mi scusi”, or “sarebbe così gentile da…?” that make every conversation more courteous, gentle, and respectful.

Ready to learn why kindness is something you can speak? Then get comfortable: Alessio and Katia will guide you through practical examples, curiosities, and plenty of good humor, helping you learn Italian one gentle expression at a time! 🎙️🇮🇹✨

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
