ALLORA — 'so', 'well', 'right then'. Italians use it to open sentences, buy thinking time and summon attention. Master your ALLORA and you sound halfway fluent already.

Learn PREGO early. It means 'you're welcome', 'after you', 'please, sit' and 'how can I help?' Walk into any Italian shop and it's the first word you'll hear.

COME VA? — literally 'how does it go?' — the everyday check-in. Safe replies: BENE (well), TUTTO BENE (all well), or the gloriously understated NON C'È MALE — 'there's no bad'.

PIACERE — literally 'pleasure' — is what you say when meeting someone new. Short for 'it's a pleasure to meet you'. One warm word does the whole job.

SEMPRE DRITTO — literally 'always straight' — is what Italians say when giving directions. It rarely means straight. It means 'keep going and ask someone else further along'.
