it was raining
It was pouring rain.
Tu indossavi uno scialle nero e pioveva.
You were wearing a black shawl, and it was raining.
— Dal cuore (1998)
Quella notte che pioveva e io le feci un ombrello col cuscino.
That night, when it was raining, I made her an umbrella out of the pillow.
— La vita è bella (1997)
Even though it was raining, I did it.
Pioveva, ma aspettavamo in strada perché lui voleva il tuo autografo.
It was raining, but we waited on the street because he wanted your autograph.
— Tutto su mia madre (1999)
Mancava poco alla mezzanotte, pioveva, tirava vento.
It was almost midnight; it was raining and windy.
Ma quella notte, quando pioveva, hai visto il suo assassinio, vero?
But that night, when it was raining, you saw his murder, right?
— Memorie di un assassino (2003)
Pioveva così forte, come se dovesse affondare il mondo.
It was raining so hard, as if the world were about to sink.
