Easy Italian words of the day: park and stay


Problem
How do you remember words easily?

Answer
Start with words which sound similar.

Oh - the Italian for park is p a r c o.

The Italian for stay looks and sounds similar.

Stay, in English becomes s t a i in Italian. Italian changes the Y to I as in Italian. S t a i. English Stay in Italy.

However, when I go into Google translate it comes up with another verb.

Tips

Italian - English
parco - park
stai - stay (as in stai a casa which is stay at home)

English - Italian
Park - parco
stay - stai

To learn Italian in a few words and phrases and sentences each day, go to Duolingo.
