I must say that I really enjoyed reading the responses to my recent post Conversational Fragments<\/strong><\/a><\/span>. I love the fact that we have such imaginative readers, and I also find the responses very useful for gauging people\u2019s comprehension of the colloquial expressions that I tend to use in my articles.<\/span><\/p>\n

One such expression that really stood out as being in need of further explanation is non \u00e8 detto<\/span><\/strong><\/span>. Here are a few examples that highlight how it should be used:<\/span><\/p>\n

Michela:<\/span> oddio, ho messo la torta in forno dieci minuti fa e adesso non c\u2019\u00e8 pi\u00f9 gas \u2026 si roviner\u00e0!
\nGiovanna:<\/span> non, non \u00e8 detto<\/span><\/span>, se cambiamo subito la bombola e alziamo appena la temperatura vedrai che andr\u00e0 tutto bene.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Michaela:<\/span> oh god, I put the cake in the oven ten minutes ago and now the gas has run out \u2026 it\u2019ll be ruined!
\nGiovanna:<\/span> no, not necessarily<\/span><\/span>, if we change the gas bottle straight away and raise the temperature a bit it\u2019ll turn out fine, you\u2019ll see.<\/span><\/p>\n

\""La<\/a>

“La torta \u00e8 pronta, signora”<\/em><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

Omar:<\/span> mi hanno detto che\u00a0per domani\u00a0hanno messo brutto tempo, mi sa che non giochiamo!
\nGeoff:<\/span> ma non \u00e8 detto<\/span><\/span>, se riusciamo ad utilizzare la vecchia palestra possiamo fare almeno un paio di partite, no?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Omar:<\/span> I\u2019ve heard that the weather\u2019s going to be bad tomorrow, I don\u2019t think we\u2019ll be playing!
\nGeoff:<\/span> well not necessarily<\/span><\/span>, if we manage to use the old gym we can at least have a couple of matches, can\u2019t we?<\/span><\/p>\n

Serena:<\/span> s\u00ec che ho lasciato fuori il bucato, ma anche se qua piove, non \u00e8 detto<\/span><\/span> che piova da noi, vero?
\nGeoff:<\/span> s\u00ec amore mio, hai ragione \u2026\u2026. come sempre \u2026\u2026.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Serena:<\/span> yes, I left the washing out, but just because it\u2019s raining here that<\/span> doesn\u2019t necessarily mean<\/span><\/span> that it\u2019s raining at home, does it?
\nGeoff:<\/span> yes love, you\u2019re right \u2026\u2026. as usual \u2026\u2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

Damiano:<\/span> e cosa ti ha detto lui?
\nThomas:<\/span> ha detto che la vernice non ti basta perch\u00e9 quel barattolo \u00e8 troppo piccolo
\nDamiano:<\/span> ma<\/span> non \u00e8 detto<\/span><\/span>, l\u2019ultima volta che ho comprato un barattolo\u00a0di quella misura\u00a0mi \u00e8 bastato<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Damiano:<\/span> so what did he say?
\nThomas:<\/span> he said that the paint won\u2019t be enough because the tin is too small
\nDamiano:<\/span> well not necessarily<\/span><\/span>, I had enough last time that\u00a0I bought a tin that size<\/span><\/p>\n

Allora cari lettori, lo so che solo perch\u00e9 vi ho spiegato come usare l\u2019espressione non \u00e8 detto<\/span><\/span>, non \u00e8 detto che abbiate capito tutto il vocabolario in questo articolo. Ditemi voi se c\u2019\u00e8 qualcosa che non avete capito, okay?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
