What are some examples of the use of the word “piacere” in Italian? What do they mean and how would you translate them into English?

In fact the noun piacere is translated into ‘pleasure’. Life’s pleasures : I piaceri della vita.

A. Thank you very much. B. It's a pleasure ( = don't mention it ). In Italian you translate ‘ It's a pleasure’ in : prego ( or ‘ non c'è di ché ‘ ).

A brothel : una casa di piacere ( even though it's more common the expression ‘ casa di tolleranza ‘ ).

Could I still use a bonnet even if I’m white/have straight hair? I just want one to wear to bed for sensory purposes.

A me piace molto suonare il pianoforte. I’m fond of ( = a me piace molto ) playing the piano. A me piace : from the verb ‘piacere’.

Piacere : to like. A me piace spesso mangiare un’insalata. I often like to eat a salad. I like : a me piace.

Mi può aiutare < per piacere > ? Can you help me < please > ?. ‘Per piacere’ stands for ‘please’.
