But if I do want to use the original phrase, is 'Lei non sopravviver\u00e0' the most common way to say 'You won't survive' in Italian?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yes, 'Lei non sopravviver\u00e0' is a correct and formal way to say 'You won't survive' in Italian.

The formal 'Lei' is often used in writing or when speaking to someone you don't know well, while 'Tu' is used with friends or in more casual situations."}]
