Where do I get off for…?
'Scendere' has a soft 'sc' before 'e': it sounds like 'SHEN-de-re'.
Use this once you are on the train and want to confirm your exit stop. Fill in the destination after 'per': 'Dove devo scendere per il Duomo?'
'Devo' is the first-person singular of 'dovere' (must/have to), one of the three core modal verbs. 'Scendere' is an irregular -ere verb meaning to go down or to get off. Together they form a modal + infinitive structure that is essential for travel Italian.
Qual è la fermata per…?
What is the stop for…?
Simpler version asking for the stop name directly.
Quante fermate mancano?
How many stops are left?
Use when you already know where to go but want a count.
Mi avvisa quando arriviamo?
Can you let me know when we arrive?
Polite request to a fellow passenger.
On Milan's metro, automated announcements name the next stop clearly. In older Roman metro trains, announcements can be hard to hear. Counting stops on the map is safer than relying on audio.
