"Il pane, per favore"

Translation: The bread, please

[zombies_of_dawn]

Something like "pass the bread" would have been better.

[BampaOwl]

Depends on the context. And what's Italian for "pass" in this context?

[KangooTom]

In the context of ordering at the restaurant, "the bread please" would fit.

[UdulaSilva]

Ya

[Alizah484449]

[CoriPullum]

Yes

[dmaiolo7]

Maybe you guys should clean your ears. It says "il" very clearly

[ChipAgapi]

is favore correctly pronounced?

[sunnyyen]

"Il" doesn't make any sound in the recording.

[rickcapellano]

Me too

[Regency]

The slow version sounds totally different from the normal speed version.

[aflah3]

what does the 'per' mean actually

[Curious_Soul]

Per means for, but per favore means please**. (Por favor in Spanish)

[Juan260278]

FOR, a favour ..... or, favour me

[maximus135-_-]

[marielys534451]

I know all of them

[AleRodrigu812304]

What is the difference between 'prego' and 'per favore'

[doreen576470]

The first is you are welcome (after the fact) the 2nd is please(asking before)

[Bob256010]

What's wrong with "some bread"?

[Yuno_Gasai_x]

Some bread is like any bread, it could be a sandwich or a loaf...
The bread is specific, you are saying exactly which bread you like
Hope I helped :)

[Nicole_USA]

Why is it also acceptable to translate this as "bread please"? Does that mean "Pane, per favore" is grammatically incorrect if you want to say "bread please"?

[benton.1]

Italians use "the" differently than we do in English. We use the definite article "the" to mean a specific thing, they customarily use "il, la, lo..." to mean something in general: e.g. "il pane" can just mean bread in general instead of "the bread".

[Regency]

That doesn't sound like the answer at all.

How to make the speech play at normal speed every time?

[MassimoBev6]

The voice was very hard to understand

[AnthonyJMa9]

The woman`s is impossible for me to understand. Played it over 100 times and still had no clue as to what she was saying.
