Italian Translation Question? |
I'm hoping to get my parents a welcome mat for their new home. I was hoping to have it say something like "Welcome to Our Home" or "Come in, Eat!" or "Welcome To The Moreschi's". Can anybody help me translate? Thanks!
Additional Details
PS - Thanks for the website link, but I would love a real Italian to help me out, so that I can be extra-certain! |

"Welcome to Our Home" Siate i benevenuti nella nostra nuova casa!
"Come in, Eat!" Entrate e Buon appettito! (Gustate i vostri piatti preferiti)
or "Welcome To The Moreschi's" I Moreschi vi danno il benvenuto! |

"Welcome to Our Home" is "Benvenuti a casa nostra" or you could also just write "Benvenuti" (that's "Welcome" ).
"Come in, Eat!" sounds ugly horrible in Italian and you shouldn't use it (but if you want do, it's "Entrate,mangiate").
"Welcome To The Moreschi's" it's "Benvenuti dai Moreschi".
However I would suggest you what is mostly used here in Italy on the welcome mats namely "SALVE" that means "hello".
Is very familiar,less formal and everybody can remember this word (and it's also the easiest for you to read).
Ciao |

Welcome to our home = Benvenuti a casa nostra
Welcome to the Moreschi's = Benvenuti dai Moreschi (if Moreschi is your parents' surname). NOT "da Moreschi". You say "da XXX" if XXX is a public place like a pub or a shop. You sai "dai XXX" if XXX is a family name.
Come in, eat! = Entrate, mangiate (but I don't understand...why you have to say them to eat when they came in? Maybe "eat" has in English a different meaning from to eat food?? I'm sorry, my English is not so good)
In Italy usually on doormats we have "Benvenuti" that means Welcome, but both "Benvenuti a casa nostra" e "Benvenuti dai Moreschi" are nice I think. |

i'm a real italian -even though my dad's english-
welcome to our home should be translated 'benvenuti a casa nostra'
'entrate, restate per cena' means 'come in, stay for dinner'
'è un piacere per me che voi siate qui' means' it's a pleasure to me you to be here'
'welcome to the moreschi's? is translated ' benvenuti dai moreschi'... but it's not very frequent to say a similar thing...
good luck!
ps in italian good luck is 'in bocca al lupo!' |

" benvenuti a casa nostra " - " entrate, mangiate !" - " benvenuti da Moreschi " |

There is a wonderful site that can translate ANYTHING for you - the site is:
http://www.babelfish.altavista.com/
I used it when teaching public school and had parents who only spoke Spanish. You can just type what you want to say and select the languages to translate to...it's very simple! :o)
Hope this helps! |

I lived in Italy for about a year a long time ago but I'll try to help.
Welcome to our home---- Benvenuto alla nostra sede
Come in, eat---- Entrada, Mangi! or manga maybe.
Try an Italian/American dictionary but I believe these are correct. |
