Ciao Maria, I was wondering if rocket touches on the sensitive subject of death and funerals. unfortunately they are a part of life and one that at times needs to be discussed. Does rocket touch on this subject in any lessons.

Grazie
Fran

Thanks Maria for responding.

I go online to the dictionary but as I've found it's not very reliable.

I'm just the basic word that would be used. ie...

Passed away
Funeral
death
to die = morire ?
grave
To express sorrow for some-ones loss.
to take their last breath
how would you express some-ones heart break.

I am expecting to have this sort of discussion.

Thank you Maria
Fran

Ciao Fran,

the verb "to pass away" can be translated as "morire"
"funeral" is "funerale"
"death" is "morte"
"to die" is "morire"
"grave" is "tomba"
"to express sorrow for some-ones loss" is "fare le condoglianze"
" to breathe one's last" is "spirare"

I hope this will helpful
Ciao
