Ciao Matilde,
Penso di aver trovato un altro errore:
Italian 7 - Level 4 - Fuel Your Vocab: Arguments
- sincere - sincere; honest
Penso che la parola giusta sia “sincero”, non è così?
I don’t know why I failed to notice it sooner!

Ciao @PietroF,
Grazie di avermelo fatto notare! I had already fixed it for more recent courses, but had forgotten to do so for English. Thanks again.

Italian 4:
If questo == this and quello == that then
"gli abbiamo già fatto questa domanda" - "we already asked him that question"
Shouldn’t be “this question”?

Buongiorno!
I’ve thought about this before actually! The problem is that both “we already asked him that question” in English and “gli abbiamo già fatto questa domanda” in Italian sound the most natural to me. When I change either deictive the sentence starts to sound slightly odd to me. I was hoping that the literal translation would be enough to show the difference between the source and the target languages. However, I understand that for a learner this might turn out to be rather confusing, so, if no one has anything to object (let’s do this democratically haha), I’ll follow your suggestion and change the English item into this question. It sounds odd to me, but definitely less so than changing the Italian into “gli abbiamo già fatto quella domanda”

Hi Matilde
I think Hallgat means:
Currently “I would like some breakfast please” = “vorrei qualcosa per colazione per favore”
LITERALLY (I think):
“I would like some breakfast please” = “vorrei un po’ di colazione per favore"
and
vorrei qualcosa per colazione per favore” = I would like someTHING for breakfast please "
Hope that explains what he was saying.
In italian 4, the english sentences are missing important words:
Mi piacciono i film drammatici, ma preferisco le commedie. <-> I like drama, but I prefer comedies.
Giocare a tennis, ma le piace di più andare in barca a vela. <-> She has a good time playing tennis, but she likes sailing more.

Hello!
I’m afraid here I’ll have to stick to the current translations. Un film drammatico is a drama in English, and andare in barca a vela is just sailing. I could change the Italian into andare a vela, but at the moment I can’t edit target language items. I’ll note it down and change it as soon as I can. In the meantime, may I suggest to use literal translations as a cue of target language word order and structure? I personally find them very useful in that respect
Thanks again for your input @hallgat89! Much appreciated

Italian 2 by memrise… every time after word supermarket, app on my phone freezes. I have to go out of it and get back in.
Ciao @ramajana,
That looks like a bug to me, thanks for reporting it! Could you please tell me model and OS version of the device you’re using? That’ll help QA reproduce the issue and make it easier to be fixed.
Thanks a lot,

I’ve been doing Memrise for a few years, back even when it was free. I even offered to invest. I think it’s a marvelous thing.
I don’t understand why you can’t have a “report an error” button on each question as per Duolingo. It may take a few weeks but those guys manage to read and fix (or not) the reported errors.
I’m doing Italian 1-7 and there are lots of irritating mistakes. If that sounds arrogant I’m sorry but I’m a motivated learner with an Italian wife so I think I can check the errors.
It would take too long to come out of the lesson, go onto the forum and send the message and anyway i’d feel like a wonk with too much time to spare. But the lack of same means you’re missing the chance to fix stuff and that feels like a shame.
Especially since I’m now paying for it.
Oh well…
But keep up good work and best of luck…

Hello everyone,
I hope you are all doing well!
I think I found a small pronunciation error in one of the videos, but I’m not sure:
Italian 3; Level 3
dove stai andando?
A man with a white beard seems to say dove sei andando? instead of dove stai andando?. I compared it to the other voices saying the same sentence and they seem to pronounce it correctly.

Ciao Matilde,
Italian 7 - Level 28 Producing Things
Non credo che questa traduzione sia giusta:
drasticamente - dramatically
Forse la parola inglese dovrebbe essere “drastically”
Grazie in anticipo

Olá!
Poderia, por favor, verificar em Italiano - Português:
Nível 5-21
-Você- fez uma bagunça = -Ho- fatto un casino
Nível 7-22
I costi = os cursos
Nível 6.24
Acertar = azzeccarci ou azzeccare?
Sugestão: em Italiano 3, me parece que “serratura” ficaria melhor como “fechadura” em lugar de “cadeado”
Grazie,

Ciao Matilde,
In Italian 3 > Level 27:
quanto costa quello? how much does that cost?
The literal translation currently says “how-much that costs.”
The literal translation seems more like “how-much costs that” (just swapping the last two words).
What do you think?
Grazie mille!

Ciao @petermuster550,
It’s a bit tricky, but the man with the beard does say Dove stai andando? . I think that big beard is muffling the t sound 
Anyway, thanks for taking the time to report this
