[{"role": "user", "content": "I'm trying to learn Italian and I think I know how to say 'I was close' but I'm not sure, can you please confirm the correct translation for me?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The correct translation for 'I was close' in Italian is 'Ero vicina' if you're a female speaker, or 'Ero vicino' if you're a male speaker. However, if you want to say 'Tell me I was close', the correct translation would be 'Dimmi che ero vicina' for a female speaker or 'Dimmi che ero vicino' for a male speaker, but a more literal translation of 'Tell me I was close' is indeed 'Mi dica che ero vicina' for a female speaker or 'Mi dica che ero vicino' for a male speaker."}]
