Farmacista: \u201cBuongiorno, desidera?\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cGood morning, how can I help you?\u201d<\/p>\n

Signora: \u201cBuongiorno. La bambina \u00e8 stata morsicata dalle zanzare e si gratta sempre\u201d<\/strong>
\nWife: \u201cGood morning. My daughter has been bitten by mosquitoes and she\u2019s scratching herself all the time\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cLe posso dare una pomata per lenire il prurito. Va applicata tre volte al giorno\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cI can give you a cream to relieve the itchiness. It must be applied three times a day\u201d<\/p>\n

Signora: \u201cC\u2019\u00e8 qualcosa per tenere lontane le zanzare?\u201d<\/strong>
\nWife: \u201cIs there anything to keep the mosquitoes away?\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cC\u2019\u00e8 questo spray alla citronella. Ne spruzza un poco sulle parti esposte del corpo, ma non bisogna abusarne\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cThere\u2019s this spray containing lemon balm. Spray a little on the exposed body parts, but you shouldn\u2019t use too much of it\u201d<\/p>\n

Signora: \u201cVorrei anche qualcosa per il mal di gola\u201d<\/strong>
\nWife: \u201cI\u2019d also like something for a sore throat\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cE\u2019 per la bambina?\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cIs it for the child?\u201d<\/p>\n

Signora: \u201cNo, per me\u201d<\/strong>
\nWife: \u201cNo, for me\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cAllora le consiglio queste pastiglie alla propoli. Ci sono vari gusti: arancia, limone, eucalipto, oppure miele\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cThen I\u2019d recommend these lozenges with propolis<\/a><\/span>. There are several flavours: orange, lemon, eucalyptus, or honey\u201d<\/p>\n

Signora: \u201cQuante ne posso prendere al giorno?\u201d<\/strong>
\nWife: \u201cHow many can I take a day?\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cFino ad un massimo di sei pastiglie in 24 ore. Desidera altro?\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cUp to a maximum of 6 lozenges in 24 hours. Did you want anything else?\u201d<\/p>\n

Signore: \u201cS\u00ec, mi \u00e8 venuto un dolore qui alla spalla che non mi d\u00e0 tregua\u201d<\/strong>
\nHusband: \u201cYes, I\u2019ve got a pain here in my shoulder which won’t let up\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cPreferisce una pomata o un cerotto?\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cWould you prefer a cream or a patch?\u201d<\/p>\n

Signore: \u201cForse \u00e8 meglio il cerotto\u201d<\/strong>
\nHusband: \u201cProbably the patch is better\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cCi sono questi cerotti all\u2019artiglio del diavolo che sono molto buoni. Ne applica uno sulla zona dolorante e ce lo lascia per tre giorni\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cThere are these patches with devil\u2019s claw which are very good. Apply one on the painful area and leave it there for three days\u201d<\/p>\n

Signore: \u201cMi pu\u00f2 dare anche un antidolorifico? La notte non riesco a dormire dal fastidio\u201d
\n<\/strong>Husband: \u201cCould you also give me some painkillers? I can\u2019t sleep at night due to the discomfort\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cLe posso dare del semplice paracetamolo, oppure se vuole qualcosa di pi\u00f9 forte ci sono questi antinfiammatori. Sono granulati in bustine monodose che si possono prendere anche senza acqua\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cI can give you some normal paracetamol, otherwise if you\u2019d like something stronger there are these anti-inflammatories. They’re granules and come in single dose sachets which can also be taken without water\u201d<\/p>\n

Signore: \u201cVa bene il paracetamolo\u201d<\/strong>
\nHusband: \u201cThe paracetamols are fine\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cIn compresse o effervescente?\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cTablets or effervescent?\u201d<\/p>\n

Signore: \u201cEffervescente, grazie\u201d
\n<\/strong>Husband: \u201cEffervescent, please\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cEcco a lei. Basta cos\u00ec?\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cHere you are. Is that all?\u201d<\/p>\n

Signora: \u201cS\u00ec, basta cos\u00ec\u201d<\/strong>
\nWife: \u201cYes, that\u2019s all\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201cAllora, in totale sono 35 euro e 59 centesimi. Fate lo scarico fiscale?\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cOkay, that\u2019s 35 euros and 59 cents all together. Do you deduct it from your taxes?\u201d<\/p>\n

Signore: \u201cNo. Ecco 40 euro\u201d<\/strong>
\nHusband: \u201cNo. Here’s 4o euros\u201d<\/p>\n

Farmacista: \u201c4 euro e 41 centesimi di resto a lei. Buongiorno e grazie\u201d<\/strong>
\nChemist: \u201cThat’s 4 euros and 41 cents change. Good morning and thank you\u201d<\/p>\n
