Q

If the package is not heavy, and you want it to get there soon, it is well to send it air mail. If instead it’s heavy, I suggest that you send it by sea. It costs much less.

A

Se il pacco è leggiero e Lei vuole che arrivi presto, sarà bene spedirlo per via aerea. Se invece è pesante, Le consiglio di mandarlo via mare. Costa molto meno.
