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?

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.

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

Who was the most ignorant American you have ever met?

Take pleasure in doing something = provare piacere nel fare qualcosa.

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

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

I'm a 27 year old male currently but I am going through going through gender dysphoria. Why do some transgender people (specifically transgender women since I see that the most) call themselves trannies or shemales? Aren't those offensive words?
