Why not set yourself the task of writing your lists in Italian? And don’t just write a simple list of commodities to buy, add in a few useful phrases, such as:<\/p>\n

Devo andare dal<\/em> fruttivendolo, pescivendolo, panettiere ecc.<\/strong> = I must go to the greengrocer, fishmonger, baker, etc.
\nDevo andare in<\/em> pasticceria, banca, farmacia, ecc. <\/strong>= I must go to the pastry shop, bank, chemist, etc.
\nDevo andare al<\/em> mercato, supermercato<\/strong> = I must go to the market, supermarket.<\/p>\n

Devo fare un salto dal<\/em> fruttivendolo, pescivendolo, panettiere ecc. <\/strong>= I must pop to the greengrocer, fishmonger, baker, etc.
\nDevo fare un salto in<\/em> farmacia, banca, posta, pasticceria ecc.<\/strong> = I must pop to the chemist, bank, post office,\u00a0pastry shop, etc.
