معنی
Living or working independently.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Mammoni' phenomenon (adults living with parents) makes 'stare per conto proprio' a major life goal and a sign of true adulthood. In cities like Milan, 'mettersi in proprio' is highly celebrated as part of the entrepreneurial 'Milano da bere' spirit. Family ties are often stronger; 'stare per conto proprio' might be seen as a bit lonely or unusual if one lives in the same town as their family. The 'Partita IVA' (VAT number) is the legal requirement for working 'per conto proprio', and it's a frequent topic of political debate regarding taxes.
The 'Mio/Tuo' Rule
Always swap 'proprio' for 'mio', 'tuo', or 'suo' in conversation. It makes you sound 100% more native.
Don't be rude
Saying 'Voglio stare per conto mio' can sound a bit cold. Add 'Scusa, ma oggi...' to soften it.
