Hey guys!
I’m loving the podcasts…I’m surprised on how easy it is to learn Italian, keep it up!

I have a question though, in english there’s the expression “hugs & kisses” the one we use in valentine’s day cards, letters, etc. , is there an expression like that used in Italy?

Andrea: It’s “baci” (kisses) e “abbracci” (hugs) - same thing as in English, just the two words are inverted.

What’s the difference between:

Ci vediamo & A presto

Why is it in first place io and not Jane in:

Cari amici, oggi io e Jane siamo a Capri.

“A presto” has the same meaning as “see you soon”, while “ci vediamo” literally means “we see each other”, and it is used with the meaning of “see you, see you later”.

It could be “oggi Jane ed io siamo a Capri” but in the “everyday” Italian is more likely to be “oggi io e Jane siamo a Capri”.
