[{"role": "user", "content": "I'm trying to write a letter to an Italian friend I've never met in person, and I'd love to know how to translate the sentence 'We never met' into Italian."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "That's a sweet gesture! The correct translation of 'We never met' in Italian would be 'Noi non ci siamo mai conosciute.' However, if you're a male or if you're writing to a male friend, you should use the masculine form: 'Noi non ci siamo mai conosciuti.' If you're unsure about the gender, you can use the more formal and neutral phrase: 'Noi non ci siamo mai incontrati.'"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I am a female and I am writing to a female friend, so I will use the correct translation: 'Noi non ci siamo mai conosciute.'"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "That's perfect! Using the correct gender form will make your letter even more special and personal. I hope your friend appreciates the thought and effort you're putting into writing to her in Italian."}]
