Cultural Tip
In Italy, gamers often discuss new releases on social media, Discord, or during coffee breaks. The word ‘trailer’ is borrowed from English and is widely understood, but you’ll also hear ‘teaser’ for shorter previews. Keep the tone informal; using ‘hai’ (you have) signals a friendly conversation rather than a formal interview.
