Bisogna

Hi Lucia,

In 16.1, "to be necessary" is translated as "bisogna". Is that really exactly right? 

Cheers,

Hi Drew,

Bisogna comes from bisognare and we could translate it as "it is necessary to...", as in:
Bisogna prendere la metro per arrivare in centro.
It's necessary to take the subway to get to the city center.

I changed the translation to "it is necessary to" so that it sounds less confusing!
