USI E COSTUMI: Lei
(Italian uses and customs)
Why do Italians use the polite form of
address?
The polite form of address "Lei" is
feminine because it comes from
“La sua Signoria"- His Lordship/Her
Ladyship-a feminine noun in Italian
13
Ciao! Origins and transformations
The informal greeting CIAO derives
from S’CIAO (Veneto dialect):
“I am your slave”
[at your service/orders!]
Used in 1700 Venice by servants
when addressing their
‘padroni’ (bosses)
