This bonus episode breaks down authentic Italian market language: how to say “I’m last,” how to respond when a clerk switches to English, how to ask for a bag, and how to keep your conversation going in Italian.

We revisit real moments from the panetteria, clarify useful expressions, and explore four types of responses Italy-learners can use in everyday situations. Antonio adds his signature commentary, and some important “bella figura” insights.

In the next episode, we’ll step even deeper into the marketplace world and uncover the mysterious universe of Italian weights and measures, plus the names of cuts of meat and poultry.
