How To Hook Up With Style

Learn Italian language with “How To Italian” episode nr. 3! In this episode we are going to learn how an Italian man approaches, with style, a little bit of cheesiness (someone would say more than a bit…), and some persistance, a woman that he likes. Our friend Marco is in the lounge bar of the Hilton hotel in Rome, when he notices a woman he likes a lot. He decides to approach her. Good luck, Marco!

In English, “may” means you are asking for permission; “can” means you are able to do something.

So when asking to buy someone a drink, you would usually say “May I buy you a drink?” as in “posso” rather than “Can I buy you a drink?” which means in effect I am able to do this; I am not asking your permission. I know this sounds nit-picky but while trying to learn the best words in Italian we should also pay attention to the English!

That’s nonsense, antonym; “Can I buy you a drink?” is perfectly natural English.
