Giving directions for a location or turn.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Italians often use landmarks (churches, fountains, bars) instead of street names when giving directions. 'A destra' will often follow a landmark. A sharp movement of the hand or even just the index finger to the right often accompanies the phrase 'a destra'. In narrow Italian streets, 'a destra' might mean pulling over to the right to let someone pass, not just turning. The right side is traditionally the place of honor at a dinner table or in formal processions.
Use your hands

Avoid 'In'
Never say 'in destra'. It's a common mistake that marks you as a beginner immediately.
