[{"role": "user", "content": "I'm learning Italian and I want to make sure I express myself politely, but I also want to know how to call someone out if they're being rude. How do I say \"You are rude\" in Italian?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "That's a great attitude to have when learning a new language. The translation of 'You are rude' in Italian is '\u00c8 maleducato.' However, please keep in mind that this phrase can be quite direct and may come across as confrontational. If you want to express the same idea in a more polite way, you could say 'Mi sembra un po' scortese' which means 'You seem a bit impolite'."}, {"role": "user", "content": "That's really helpful, thank you. What's the difference between '\u00c8 maleducato' and 'Mi sembra un po' scortese'? When would I use each?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "You would use '\u00c8 maleducato' in a situation where you want to be more direct and assertive, maybe with someone you're familiar with or in a situation where you feel strongly about the person's behavior. On the other hand, 'Mi sembra un po' scortese' is a more polite way to express the same idea, and it's suitable for most everyday interactions, especially with people you don't know well."}]
