 Ciao Jane and Massimo,
I am finding your podcasts a great way to learn Italian. Most enjoyable. I am a little confused with the translation of one of the sentences in the supplemantary vocubulary – “Ci sentiamo piu tardi” – I will talk to you later.
Should this not translate as “I will listen to you later” as the verb sentire means to listen?
I look forward to your reply.
Ciao, Ciao, Davina

Davina, the expression “ci sentiamo piu’ tardi” means literally “we will hear from each other later” – it’s actually an idiomatic expression equivalent to the English “I will talk to you later”, or “we’ll talk later”.
