It's a very common way to express missing someone in Italian, but it can be used in various contexts, from romantic to platonic relationships."}, {"role": "user", "content": "That's really helpful to know. What if I want to say 'I miss you so much' or 'I miss you a lot'? Is there a way to convey that in Italian?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "To convey the intensity of your feelings, you can say 'Mi manchi tanto' (I miss you so much) or 'Mi manchi moltissimo' (I miss you a lot). Alternatively, you can also use 'Mi manchi da morire' (I miss you to death), which is a more idiomatic expression."}]
