Pronunciation

'Materiale' = ma-te-RYA-le; stress on the third syllable.

When to use it

Use after a presentation to offer handouts, printed slides, or a digital file of your slides to the audience.

What it means

Providing a physical or digital copy of the presentation ('materiale') is standard practice in Italian business meetings. It allows the audience to review points, share internally, and refer back later. 'Vi lascio' (I leave you) is a warm, personal way to offer it.

The slides are available on request.

Mini Dialogue

Prima di chiudere, vi lascio una copia del materiale presentato. In questo documento troverete tutti i dati citati, le fonti e i riferimenti per approfondimenti. Se avete domande dopo la presentazione, non esitate a contattarmi.

Before closing, I leave you with a copy of the material presented. In this document you will find all the data cited, the sources, and references for further research. If you have questions after the presentation, do not hesitate to contact me.

Cultural Note

Italian professionals often request the slides ('le slide') after a presentation. If you are presenting at a client's office, bring printed copies as a gesture of professionalism — even if they are also sent digitally. Paper still carries weight in Italian business culture.
