[{"role": "user", "content": "I'm trying to express a bit of disappointment to an Italian friend, but I'm not fluent - how would I say 'We've been better' in Italian?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "The correct translation for 'We've been better' in Italian is 'Siamo state meglio.' However, please note that the verb conjugation might change based on the subject. If you're referring to a group of males or a mixed group, you would use 'Siamo stati meglio.' But if you're talking about a group of females, 'Siamo state meglio' is the correct form."}]
