How to Say โ€˜To our meeting.โ€™ in Italian

Alla nostra conoscenza.

AHL-lah NOH-strah koh-noh-SHEN-tsah

[AHL-lah NOH-strah koh-noh-SHEN-tsah]

๐Ÿ’ฌ Usage Tip: [A] + [la] becomes [alla]. The same kind of merge happens a lot in Italian: [a] + [il] = [al], [di] + [il] = [del].

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น In Italy: This is a toast: more naturally "to getting to know each other" than a literal "to our meeting." It sounds a bit polished or playful, so in a casual bar people might more often just say [piacere] or [alla tua].
