How to Say ‘I'll give you some medicine.’ in Italian

Le do una medicina.

leh doh OO-nah meh-dee-CHEE-nah

[leh doh OO-nah meh-dee-CHEE-nah]

💬 Usage Tip: Le here means "to you", the polite form. It's the same as le "to her", so context tells you which. Present tense often covers the near future: do "I give" works as "I'll give".
