This week we're going to look at words and phrases to compliment someone in Italian. If you want to compliment someone on their achievements, you can say: Bravo/a – or use the superlative, bravissimo/a – good, well done Complimenti – congratulations, good job Ex. Complimenti per il lavoro svolto – congratulations on a job well done Or if they're saying 'complimenti' to you, and you want to say thanks, you'd say, grazie per i complimenti.
If you want to congratulate someone on their graduation, engagement or getting married, a baby's birth, or similar occasions, you'd use the word congratulazioni – congratulations.
