Welcome to your first review! In this lesson, we will consolidate everything you have learned so far: saying hello and goodbye, counting from 1 to 10, and introducing yourself.
1. Greetings & Farewells
Use ciao for both hello and goodbye in informal settings. For formal situations, use buongiorno (good morning).
2. Numbers 1–10
- 1: uno
- 2: due
- 3: tre
- 4: quattro
- 5: cinque
- 6: sei
- 7: sette
- 8: otto
- 9: nove

3. Basic Introductions
To say your name, use Mi chiamo followed by your name. To ask someone's name informally, use Come ti chiami?
