[simonaj]

Non vale la pena uscire: Is "It's not worth it to go out" correct?
thanks

"It's not worth it"

"it isn't worth it" dovrebbe andare.

Ho trovato su garzantilinguistica.it l'esempio "it isn't worth going" = "non vale la pena di andare".

Ciao!

More literally, its not worth the trouble ('the penalty') of it, or its not worth the effort of it. ('ne' = 'of it')
Hope that helps

I have been trying to learn Italian, recently with the CD course of Michel Thomas. In a CD for Advanced the speaker says " Non credo che vale la pena ....". Could someone tell me, if it is not more correct to use conjunctive "Non credo che valga la pena...." ?

But wait for other opinions.

When in the main clause there is a verb such as "credere" or "pensare, ritenere etc.." there is alawys the subjunctive in the secondary clause. In this case I would use
"non credo che valga la pena"

non vale la pena di tenere....

Grazie a tutti
