The broken delivery

Develop solving problems together through a focused vocabulary itinerary.

The situation

A damaged delivery requires messages, instructions, and a negotiated replacement.

  • Mi dai il libro? Certo, te lo do subito.· Will you give me the book? Of course, I will give it to you now.
  • Hai mandato la foto a Luca? Sì, gliel’ho mandata.· Did you send the photo to Luca? Yes, I sent it to him.
  • Te lo voglio dire.· I want to tell you it.
  • Voglio dirtelo.· I want to tell it to you.

Target language in context

The goal is to use combined pronouns and commands while solving a service problem. Read the models first for meaning, then notice the forms that carry the message.

  • Dimmelo subito, per favore.· Tell it to me now, please.
  • Me lo dica con calma.· Tell it to me calmly.
  • Allora, te lo mando stasera. Va bene?· So, I will send it to you tonight. Is that okay?
  • Hai il contratto? Me lo puoi mandare?· Do you have the contract? Can you send it to me?
