torno sempre
The Italian phrase for "I always come back" is torno sempre.
torno sempre is used to state that you habitually return to a specific place or situation.
Did you know?
- The verb tornare shares a root with the English word 'turn', reflecting the physical act of turning around to head back where you came from.
- If you are returning to a person rather than a place, you must add a preposition, such as in torno sempre da lui.
- In certain regional dialects, particularly in the south, you might hear people use 'sempre' to mean 'still' or 'even', which can confuse a standard learner.
