I have a simple question. Can I say "I can tell you more about myself" like this

Posso dirti di più circa me.

The main doubts I have is if I can use "di più" like this, if circa is right and if I should use "me" or "mi" (I might have imagined it, but I thought I read somewhere that me is used after a preposition).

Thanks

As Italian I use "posso dirti di più su di me" or "posso dirti di più di me". Or even better "posso dirti qualcosa in più su di/di me" that is "I can tell you something more about myself".

  • Yes I wondered about ..."di più di"... can you use "su" in general to mean 'about' or 'regarding'?

    About it's "circa" when you talk abount quantities. Probably in other cases too, but now I dont't know. When you are speaking about someone or something it's "su/di" or "riguardo"

Not a grammatical issue but a more common translation is:

  • Posso dirti di più di me/su di me.

Using circa I'd probably say

  • Posso dirti di più circa me stesso. (Not a common use of "circa" anyway)
