Cultural Tip
In Italy, “online” is the most common way to refer to the internet in everyday speech, but in more formal writing you may also see “in rete” or “sul sito web”. When speaking with older customers, it can be courteous to add a brief explanation, e.g., “online, cioè sul nostro sito internet”.
