- -to present o to introduce?-
- Nota d'uso
Il verbo “presentare” può essere tradotto con to present nel senso di “porgere, mostrare” qualcosa: You have to present your passport to the policeman, deve presentare il passaporto al poliziotto. Presentare una persona a qualcuno corrisponde invece a to introduce (sb. to sb.): Let me introduce you to Mrs White, ti presento la signora White, o più informalmente a to meet: Meet my parents, ti presento i miei. To present è usato con questo significato solo quando si presenta una persona (o un oggetto) importante ad un pubblico: Ladies and gentlemen, let me present the new prototype (Stephen Hawking), signore e signori vi presento il nuovo prototipo (Stephen Hawking).
