le dicevo

Questo è il festival che le dicevo!

This is the festival I was telling you about!

"Hai proprio ragione", le dicevo.

“You’re absolutely right,” I would tell her.

E allora, come le dicevo la chiesa è mal ridotta.

So, as I was telling you, the church is in pretty bad shape.

È quello che le dicevo anche io.

That's what I told her too.

Le dicevo tutto.

I told her everything.

No, le dicevo, a volte la porta si blocca per una sciocchezza.

No, I was telling you, sometimes the door gets stuck over something silly.

Mary credeva a tutto quello che le dicevo.

Mary believed everything I told her.

"Come, stai bene?", le dicevo io,"Se stessi bene, non saresti qui".

“How are you feeling?” I would ask her. “If I were feeling well, I wouldn’t be here.”
