"Lei aveva chiamato il suo amico."

Translation: She had called her friend.

[PopeBuckI]

On the recording, the speaker clearly says "Lei MI aveva chiamato il suo amico."

[treszter]

That was my problem! But only in the normal speed version. The slow version clearly misses that.

[yttap09]

ah ! she called me her friend

[yttap09]

This means that her friend is male?
But why not, "she had called his friend?"

[dnovinc]

Yes, her friend is male since it is "amico". "She had called his friend" is also correct.

[yttap09]

I thought so, too, but the owl did not agree with me. Must just be a machine glitch.
thanks for responding

[AlexBuxton]

How do you say she asked her friend

[yttap09]

Lei ha chiesto a suo amico".... ? I think

[yttap09]

Lei ha domandato a suo amico....? maybe/

[GregHullender]

I think "Lei ha chiesto al suo amico" or "Lei ha domandato al suo amico" are both fine.
