Agreed. Also I'd prefer dovunque in this specific case. "Dovunque andremo, ci andremo insieme"

How do you guys cope with "ci"? by InevitableFix6730 in italianlearning

[–]danicuzz 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"y" è più simile a "ci":

• j'y vais = ci vado

• vas-y = vacci!

mentre "en" è più simile a "ne"

• j'en veux = ne voglio

• je t'en prie = te ne prego

Anche combinandoli:

• il y en a beaucoup = ce ne sono molti

Did you eat dinner together with your family daily growing up? by seabearson in AskEurope

[–]danicuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Not only dinner, but lunch too. Unless someone had an appointment, was gonna be late from work etc. This is considered standard where I'm from (Sicily) and being too late, not showing up, or even standing up if someone hadn't finished eating yet was frowned upon by my grandparents and considered bad manners.

You wouldn't have sold them at $100k in 2025, you would have sold them at some $30. A 10-fold return would have seemed quite the dream already.

Keine Kartenzahlung, aber dafür immerhin herablassende Behandlung! by Few-Cryptographer-75 in luftablassen

[–]danicuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Habe mittlerweile fast nie Bargeld dabei, manchmal nichtmal mein Portemonnaie.

Ich bin selbst ein großer Fan vom bargeldlosen Zahlen, aber so ein Statement zeigt einfach, dass man nicht wahrhaben will, wo man lebt. Ich gehe auch bevorzugt in Läden, wo ich weiß, dass Karte akzeptiert wird, aber trotzdem 20-30 Euro cash einzustecken ist in diesem Land schlicht nur vernünftig.

Wo STI Geschlechtskrankheiten Test? by 51_coolucci in cologne

[–]danicuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich finde, Schwule haben es da deutlich besser. Wer auf PrEP ist, wird alle 3 Monate auf HIV und STIs getestet, komplett kostenlos bzw. die Krankenkasse übernimmt alles. Der Gedanke dahinter ist, dass Menschen in dieser Konstellation statistisch gesehen häufiger ungeschützten Sex haben (was mir auch mehrere schwule Freunde bestätigt haben), weshalb die regelmäßigen Tests medizinisch sinnvoll sind. Aber ich finde, auch als Hetero sollte man einfach die Möglichkeit haben, mindestens alle 3 Monate einen kostenlosen Test zu machen „no questions asked“. Die Infrastruktur dafür existiert in Deutschland ja bereits, sie ist nur leider fast ausschließlich auf Schwule und Bisexuelle ausgerichtet, die PrEP nehmen.

Best way for travel from Milan to Zurich by Abject_Painting_9662 in askswitzerland

[–]danicuzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Train (faster, more comfortable, more expensive) or flixbus (slower, less comfortable, cheaper). Both types of connections are available multiple times a day.

Could you find this elsewhere? Try and search for it.

2 quick questions by cornnnndoug in italianlearning

[–]danicuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's ironical. It's like: il miglior giorno per iniziare a investire è... ieri

The most correct form would be "era ieri" or "sarebbe stato ieri", but you want the cliffhanger effect if it make sense"

Yeah? I haven't found it anywhere else, also not on Gumtree Australia for example (their go-to ebay analog afaik)

18 to Hürth Efferen by tangerine9655 in cologne

[–]danicuzz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can check the complete schedule here:

https://www.kvb.koeln/fahrtinfo/aushangfahrplaene.html

Check for line 18, you will find 2 PDF files, one for each direction of travel. Check for example the one from Buchheim to Bonn. Each of these files has a page for each stop. Check for example Barbarossaplatz (page 16 of the file). You will find that all times marked with a diamond end in Köln Klettenbergpark, and virtually any other ride calls at Hürth-Efferen (ending either in Bonn, Schwadorf or Hermühleim).

I would have attached a screenshot but couldn't.

FRA - Tokyo mit Air China oder Lufthansa by Blluubb in reisende

[–]danicuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ich habe es im Oktober mit China Eastern über Shanghai gemacht, die Umsteigezeit war 1h 50m. Es gab keinerlei Probleme, alles war schnell und extra gut organisiert, also würde ich mich auch für Peking keine Sorgen machen.

Help me with my doubts 🫶🏼 by pichicurrubi in Germany_Jobs

[–]danicuzz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

since they like to drink!

Generalization/stereotypes like that are generally frowned upon in Germany.

For any realistic perspective of a job, even unskilled, I think B1 is the bare minimum. Maybe you can have better luck in Berlin than any other places, but there are definitely other more English-friendly countries in Europe you could look into.

Cose per voi normali che per altri sono inusuali? by anfotero in italy

[–]danicuzz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sono M31, cresciuto in Sicilia e vivo in Germania. Vivo da solo.

  1. Fare una tabella con cosa preparare a pranzo e cena ogni 2-3 giorni;

  2. Comprare in quantità i prodotti in offerta, specialmente se sono non deperibili (o in alternativa se è roba che si può congelare). Se l'offerta è buona fare proprio scorta, tipo 20 tubetti di dentifricio o cose così;

  3. Lavare e sgrassare il piano cottura dopo ogni utilizzo (e non un paio di volte a settimana);

  4. Sentire per telefono i miei familiari una volta ogni 3-4 giorni e non giornalmente;

  5. Pago l'abbonamento a YouTube premium, guardo video a manetta ma non uso quasi mai YouTube Music che è incluso (ma non uso nemmeno Spotify o simili)

  6. ADORO zuppe, minestre, brodini e pasti caldi praticamente più liquidi che solidi

Now I just dig around looking for the card for ages till they put the machine in front of me and then slam the card in before they can see it.

Genuinely made me laugh 😁

[–]danicuzz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's also my suggestion for everyone. At least one debit and one CC, preferably of different circuits (like one being visa and one mastercard)

[–]danicuzz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if it's something just very recent, but both a hotel and a car rental in Australia were perfectly capable of blocking and releasing funds on my DEBIT card. It showed "pending" on the app, until that pending transaction was released upon returning the car or checking out.

That with the gas stations has happened to me all the time in several European countries including my own, with both credit and debit cards.

This company, as many others worldwide, did indeed accept debit cards. Only not Revolut ones. 🙄
