Can I bring my dog on the metro?
'Cane' — CA-ne. Hard 'c' before 'a'; two syllables, stress on the first.
Ask before entering the turnstile with a pet. Rules for dogs on Italian public transport vary by city and company.
'Portare' here means to bring along (a person or animal). 'Sul metro' (on the metro) uses 'su + il'. The sentence structure mirrors 'Posso portare la bici sul metro?' — simply swap the object to ask about different items.
