Ascolto
You are in the heart of Florence. You want to travel to Rome, but you're not sure where the main train station is. You stop to ask a passerby. In Italy, it's always polite to start with "Mi scusi" (Excuse me) to get someone's attention respectfully.
Ascolto
You've arrived at the station. Although there are modern ticket machines, you choose to go to the ticket counter (la biglietteria) to practice your Italian. When asking for something, use the conditional "Vorrei" (I would like) – it sounds much more polite than "Voglio" (I want).
