Title: Molto Lento - Learning Italian Post by: Tywash on April 27, 2011, 11:59:18 AM I learned this term when trying to order a Quat D Exbox exhaust and a Bitubo Steering Damper for my Monster 1100. Both were ordered over 4 weeks ago and neither has shown up. What is funny is that they were both ordered from two different vendors. I have since called the U.S. distributor for Quat D and was told the Italians were molto lento. So, just know the vendors aren't totally to blame. I am a patient guy, but apparently not as patient as an Italian craftsman is.
molto lento means very slow. Title: Re: Molto Lento - Learning Italian Post by: the_Journeyman on April 27, 2011, 01:35:51 PM I was thinking that, Italian shares some linguistic similarities with Español.

I bought ten bottles of wine and sent them back to the states which were sent over a month in advanced before I left Italy and they still didn't get delivered till three weeks after I got home. Molto rosso vino is a good term to know as well as basta or dov'ie si il toilette/bano [laugh]
