27. Meet Renzo & Lucia (Intermediate)
Level: Intermediate
Renzo & Lucia, two of Jane’s friends, met and fell in love last summer in Rimini, a well-known seaside location. Now they’re planning to meet in Rome to spend a romantic weekend. Let’s review and practice how to describe people and actions, and how to use not-so-easy to grasp sentences like “si sono conosciuti” (they met each other) and “si sono innamorati” (they fell in love). Enjoy!
