"At least, for the moment it is like that."

Translation: Almeno, per il momento è così.

[VjekoM]

Is "al momento" appropriate here?

[sureed]

I put "almeno è così per il momento" which was marked wrong. Is that completely wrong or unnatural word order in Italian?

[DavideFaor]

It's the same, it's not wrong... I'm italian :)

[robinbluebreast]

Io avevo risposto "per adesso è così", funziona anche, no?

[Leigh8724]

Why was the inclusion of "come" before "così" wrong?

[doffel]

Could allora be correct as well, instead of per il momente?

[Gink526960]

No, "allora" means "then" or "at the time", and so it would need a past tense: "Almeno allora era così" is a correct sentence, but of course with a different meaning than what is asked.

[ThinkerDreamer]

Can someone tell me why "Almeno, attualmente è così" is wrong here? I'm reporting it as a mistake.

[dnovinc]

attualmente = at the moment (among other things) http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/attualmente

"For the moment" is practically the same as "for the time being" and here (http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=847754) they make a distinction between "at the moment = attualmente" which refers to a certain specific moment and "for the time being = per il momento" which refers to a longer time span that includes present moment

Please correct me if I'm wrong, I'm not a native English speaker.

[ThinkerDreamer]

Oh! Yeah, you helped me see the difference. I think it's that "at the moment/attualmente" is talking about RIGHT NOW, in ONLY THIS moment, and "for the moment/per il momento" is implying that __ is how it will be until something changes, so continuing on into the future.

Hairsplitting right here, haha.

I think you're right, and I am a native English speaker. :)

[c14p]

Does "per ora" also mean For the moment / for the time being / for now ?

[GabrieleLo312903]

I have this same question

[DavideFaor]

Don't worry, it's not a mistake! Attualmente and al momento are synonims... Fidati, sono italiano :)

[DaveTodaro]

Perche non "per ora?"

[rosstripi]

couldn't "in questo momento" also work?

[Stephen223002]

I wrote the right answer and yet they marked it wrong.

[TetamanuAm]

What's wrong with finalmente instead of almeno?

[clemente844281]

In italiano la forma corretta è AL Momento
