[{"role": "user", "content": "I'm trying to understand the emotional state of a character in a story and I stumbled upon the sentence 'Tom is mortified.' Could you help me translate that into Italian so I can better convey the emotion in another language?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The sentence 'Tom is mortified' can be translated to Italian as 'Tom \u00e8 mortificato.' This means that Tom is feeling extremely embarrassed or humiliated, often to the point of feeling ashamed or degraded. The word'mortificato' conveys a strong sense of emotional distress and self-consciousness, which should help you convey the character's emotional state in the Italian translation."}]
