Max: Ciao, language learners! Welcome to ‘The ItalianChat Experience,’ the first AI-made learning Italian podcast. I’m Max, and today, we’re going to help you master the art of ordering coffee in Italian.

Sofia: Ciao, Max! Ordering coffee in Italy is a daily ritual and a great way to practice your Italian. Let’s dive into some key phrases.

Max: Absolutely, Sofia. So, when you enter a café, you might want to say, ‘Buongiorno, vorrei un caffè, per favore’ (Good morning, I’d like a coffee, please).

Sofia: Perfetto! And if you want something specific, like a cappuccino, you can say, ‘Vorrei un cappuccino, per favore.’

Sofia: There’s a great article on LearnItalianPod about ‘10 Ways to Order Coffee in Italy Like a Local.’ We’ll link to the article in the show notes.

Max: Sounds good! Now, let’s practice a quick dialogue. Sofia, you be the barista.

Sofia: Buongiorno! Cosa desidera?

Max: Buongiorno, vorrei un caffè, per favore.

Sofia: Certo! Vuole anche qualcosa da mangiare?

Max: No, grazie. Solo un caffè.

Sofia: Perfetto. Un momento.

Max: Nice! Let’s repeat the dialogue one more time, Sofia.

Sofia: Let’s do it! I’m the barista.

Sofia: Buongiorno! Cosa desidera?

Max: Buongiorno, vorrei un caffè, per favore.

Sofia: Certo! Vuole anche qualcosa da mangiare?

Max: No, grazie. Solo un caffè.

Sofia: Perfetto. Un momento.
