11. Goodnight My Love (Upper Intermediate)

PDF Transcript - Dialogue - Expansion - Glossary - Quiz

Episode #11 of the “Upper-Intermediate Level Series” is entitled “Goodnight My Love”. Italo is finally in his bedroom at the hotel in Venice, ready to go to bed. There’s only one thing he needs to do right before falling asleep: calling his wife Lucia, ask her about her day, and wish her goodnight. Let’s hear an informal phone conversation between a husband and a wife at the end of a long day of work. You’ll find a lot of “real, everyday, informal” Italian on this episode, and on the grammar section, we’ll keep learning the hypothetical constructions. Enjoy!

I can’t find the word/words for “bad day”. It sounds “giorna taccia”. Is it one word or two? I would have expected “giorno” or “giornata”.

I love the Upper Intermediate series. I’m enjoying the challenge of the new grammar combined with the idiomatic expressions.

Ciao, Ellie.

It’s given as one word — giornataccia — in the .pdf transcript. That spelling is confirmed at this site: http://www.wordreference.com/iten/giornataccia

Saluti cordiali,
Elisabetta
