Do you have a loyalty card?

Pronunciation

fe-del-TA — stress on final syllable. 'fedeltà' has an accent on the last 'a'.

When to use it

Ask at the box office when buying tickets. Good to ask on your first visit to a new cinema. Italian multiplex chains usually offer loyalty programmes with points or stamps.

What it means
