When speaking Italian, you need to think about the situation and who you are talking to. This can help you choose between formal and informal language. Here are some important differences to remember:

1. Greetings:

   • Formal: Use "Lei" when you want to show respect.
   • Informal: Use "tu" when you're with friends.

2. Word Choice:

   • Formal: Use more complex words and complete sentences.
   • Informal: Use slang, shortcuts, and casual phrases.

3. Feelings:

   • Formal: Keep it polite and stick to a clear style.
   • Informal: Be more relaxed and friendly.

Understanding these differences can make social situations easier to handle!
