@darren motise Rosetta Stone and Living Languages do not teach Italian in the same way Manu does through his Italy Made Easy program. Rosetta Stone teaches words and phrases without grammar. Living Languages was a recording with workbooks. In his Italy Made Easy program, Manu uses grammar, pronunciation aids, drills, practice, homework, tips for remembering the lesson, along with the history behind different aspects of the language and Italian culture. The IME platform also gives students access to the teachers and other students, allowing everyone to ask questions, practice speaking, and encouraging each other. I spend the same amount of time each day with IME as I did with Rosetta Stone and Living Languages. I have learned more in the 5 months of IME as I did in the 2 years of Rosetta Stone and Living Languages.
@PaulaWordCrafts OK. I'm happy you explained. Those programs don't sound very good. I thought they were. Duolingo seems pretty bad to me, but maybe I never learned how to use it properly.
I'm a student and my parents probably wouldn't agree with my idea of buying an Italian course. Even if I collect money, I still don't have a credit card.
Im about 60 lessons into the "Zero to Italian" program. I have been learning Italian on and off for years (I would say mostly off because I feel that, in hindsight, I wasn't putting in the effort), and all of the other programs I tried, make me REALLY appreciate Italy Made Easy. Sooo many things that didn't make sense to me for YEARS, explained in no time. If you try this program and are not happy with it, then I sincerely don't think you will be happy with any program.
I agree. In some ways I wish I could've started my learning with From Zero to Italian, but the plus side of having tried other things first is that I have full appreciation for how good it really is.
Manu is the best teacher I have ever had. I’ve been studying Italian with Italy Made Easy for almost three years now and have enjoyed every moment. I’m not naturally fast at learning and so I worked through the sessions in my own time without any pressure. Sometimes I went through the same section a few times to get full understanding and sometimes the sessions were quick and easy. The content is varied throughout the course so it doesn’t become tedious or boring. I’d definitely recommend this course for anyone wanting to learn Italian or to improve their current knowledge.
@@italymadeeasy I am that person that has some knowledge but doesn't have the confidence just to start talking. Io conosco un poco. I watched some of these free videos, but the first 6 or so are on pronunciation. Is this still for me?
My Italian boyfriend recommended this video and it's by far the best out there that i've seen. Manu is very precise in digging the smallest detail to be understood before jumping into the bigger topic. Thank you for what you do. It's not just a course, you delivered to us but a beautiful way to learn a beautiful language. Grazie Manu
I literally just started learning Italian. It’s been 3 weeks filled with confusion 😅 I’m glad that I’ve stumbled upon your channel. Brilliant tutor! Grazie mille!
Yeah, I'm italian so I find it easy, but when I try to look it from an unbiased perspective I see that it's not easy to learn it(it has a difficult grammar compared to english, and so many things to learn)
@@canalesenzanome4830Bro is it compulsory for an Indian to learn Italian before coming to Italy if he/she is coming to settle after doing post graduation like "MBA"etc kind of courses? And are they(indians) treated well in Italy, like racism nd all do it happen (generally asking) ? As I heard that Hinduism is also growing rapidly now in Italy ? Also, how difficult is for an Indian (Asian) to get PR, post study work visa , nd in future citizenship in Italy? Who do their Post Grad from Italy and how long will the language be to find employment etc.
@@Sushant.Fan_1 Hi, I'm sorry if I am not able to fully answer your question. Anyway if you want to come here and find a good work, you will need to know the language, otherwise you might still be able to find a work, but not one where your degree is needed. As for racism, well, probably there is more racism towards Africans or Muslim countries people compared to Indians, you should be fine. For the visa I don't know, but I can tell you it's already difficult to find a good job for us even with a good degree, so I don't know if I'd suggest you to try
After sampling a bunch of your TH-cam videos and your podcast (which I still listen to for the immersion!), I took the plunge and signed up for your course yesterday and so far I absolutely love it. I was self learning for a year and I have a lot of knowledge gaps, or some things that I don't fully understand, just memorized some certain examples, so finally having everything explained properly and fully is such a relief. I've started from the very beginning of your course, so some of it is review for me and now I also get a chance to deepen my understanding and fill in any gaps I might have. Thanks so much for the course, I really love it a lot so far!
learning in our native language is YES!!!! I have taken so many classes and when I try to make it make sense in my native language the teacher scolded me for trying to translate into english to make it make sense to myself and my classmates. She wanted it all to be in italian- in a beginner class!
This course is amazing I’m only a few lessons in and I’m starting to pick Italian up so much quicker when I hear it and when I see it thank you so much for this!!!
It's 4 a.m. and now I'm done studying. Thank you so much, Manu. Nobody could explain how to say A in Italian as well as you did. All the problems with it are solved finally. 💙
Caio! Si Manu...I have been using your methods, albeit a bit slow for me since it takes me a bit longer around about a month, however, for anyone looking at learning Italian, you do an amazing job. I am thankful to you and the team who have put all of this stuff together for us to learn. It is a beautiful language and I am enjoying learning it so much more then I thought. Your process has been a huge help. This is hands down the best method I have found and has been keeping me encouraged to move forward. Grazie Manu!

I'm a Category IV language (Korean) learner for the US Army. Learning Italian on the side to maintain my sanity (Korean 8 hours a day will drive you crazy). Thank you for having such a scientific and realistic approach to teaching language. I was waiting for you to pull out the snake oil, but everything you say is 100% consistent with the teaching methods used here at the Institute. Thank you for being transparent, looking forward to following your course.
@@zoiuduu The thing is that it really helps. There are days when I'm overwhelmed or don't feel like learning Italian and then I switch to Irish (just a little because that language is crazy too and I'm always glad to return to Italian 😅). But the short break or distance from learning a specific language helps me stay true to my routine.
You've really opened why i am struggling with learning Italian in the introductory video. Especially what you said regarding immersion. I am taught Italian in italian at the CPIA centre and my progress has been extremely slow. I've been here for 8-9months and its been slow. I must admit that learning the language only hearing everything being said in Italian has affected my attendance to the lessons. Grazie mille Manu per questo lezioni. God bless you
Thank u so much 💕..I am following your all videos. It's been 1 month now since I came Italy. since this is the summer vacation i counldn't find either teacher or school. I was afraid of italian language before. but fortunately I saw one of your videos on utube. Now i am following your vodeos A to Z. I love to learn italian language very much. Your teaching pattern is excellent. Good job Mr. Manu👍.
Welcome to Italy, Chathmini! Don't be afraid of Italian language: with practice and commitment, you'll achieve wonderful results. Thank you for learning with our videos. A presto 🤗
Thank you very much! Here in South Korea, it's difficult to find a good Italian study material. Your videos are very useful. Please keep uploading videos like this!
What is called/what's called/what do you call it all translate to "come si chiama?", while what's its name/what is the name of it literally translate to "che nome ha? / qual è il suo nome?", but if you're not talking about people I'd say the first sounds more natural (and I'd add "this object", so "come si chiama questo oggetto?"
As an RN certified in Neuroscience Nursing, I was excited to learn that acquiring and using a new language involves a different part of the brain than that of one's mother tongue. What this means in nursing is that those with a stroke or injury to the portion of their brain involving their primary language may be able to communicate in a language they had learned later! The ability to communicate is so important in recovering! Although I'm now learning the predominant secondary language in my region (and encouraging others to do the same), Italian is by far my favorite language. Manu, I hope you will see this message and convey it to others. I love you and your teaching method, and I'm applying your principles to Spanish!
Hello Manu, Even I am starting just few days ago. I want to say thank you so much for this video. I have been planning and learn on and off since 5 years ago and for the first time I found myself really happy to start again learn Italian. I don’t want to think this is hard for me to do but you just gave me a courage to learn again so Thank you and I am way too grateful to find a great teacher just like you. Grazie Mile Manu. 🎉💐🌞
Ciao! 🌟 Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us! It's inspiring to hear that you’re ready to dive back into learning Italian! Learning a language can feel challenging at times, but with consistency and a positive mindset (which you definitely have!), you'll go far. 🥰
sei proprio un bravo insegnate! I said the same thing....you are like a child again...to learn from the beginning. The fastest way is to immerse yourself in the culture and break through the intense frustration by being around Italian people and I mean Italy. You have to USE it and also get the sounds and the mouth to get used to it
I love watching your videos. I really wanted to learn Italian with your site, to speak better with my family in Italy, Unfortunately I couldn't afford the up in price. But I will continue to watch your TH-cam videos because I enjoy your teaching.
The other day I received the reply to my letter to my cousin in Italy. I can figure out most of what the letter says. My cousin also wrote in the letter "Mi ha fatto piacere ricevere la tua lettera (complimenti per il corretto italiano)." The "corretto italiano" is largely thanks to Manu and all of the team responsible for the "From Zero to Italian" course I have been taking. Grazie mille!
Hi Manu! Just back from a fantastic holiday in Italy. I was so pleased when a shopkeeper asked me if I spoke Italian …! Un po, I said, but it was all down you and your superb course! Even my Italian speaking friend was impressed with my limited ability to string a few sentences together. Keep up the good work. We’re back in July to try again! 😮
@@sexymanicou3403you can say "come si chiama?". For example you point an object and ask "come si chiama questo oggetto?"(How is this object called?"), or even with personal name, like "come si chiama il tuo amico?"(what's your friend's name)
Manu! Its been 3 months since your last video! Please come back! I love the 1-hr videos, senza inglese! Will be signing up soon for the subscription on your website.
I am enrolled in Part One of the Beginner's Course of "From Zero to Italian." I am a little over halfway through the course. I have memory problems and sometimes I need to refresh things I have learned in previous lessons. I have a lot of other tools that Manu has recommended: my own Quizlet sets; online Dictionary; online Verb Conjugation Tool. I also regularly research my own Italian ancestry online in documents in microfilms on Family Search. Sometimes I have gone back through the lessons to refresh my memory. These videos can serve the same purpose. So I will be watching all of these even as I progress with the lessons. So, Grazie mille Manu!
@@italymadeeasy Something interesting happened today. I took your advice about Immersion and I watched several episodes of "Portale del Verde" and then I watched an interview on QVC Italia and sometimes when somebody spoke I could see the words in my head. I did not know what all of them meant, but, I could see them and even sometimes "corrected mistakes." For example one time she said a word and in my head I saw some of the letters as "...sch..." and then I thought and realized that no it should be spelled "...sc..." not "...sch..." Things like that. Also in reference to any Italian content whether audio-visual, audio or even written such as official histories of comuni [Found on the official websites of the comuni] after more lessons I go back and find previous content and read or listen or watch it again and I am amazed at how much more I understand. So, I also use Immersion in that way. It is a good measure of how much I have improved which gives me a good feeling of encouragement. It's kind of a little reward for putting in the work. I do need to get better at speaking more quickly without having to think about how to say something. Some things are because I haven't learned them yet but sometimes even things I should know I stumble with how to be familiar and natural with it the same as in conversations in English.
Grazie mille for your support! 😊 We're so glad that the content has been helpful to you. Learning a language is such a rewarding journey, and it's amazing to hear that you're enjoying it.
Grazie Manu! I’m traveling to Florence in a few months and this video has been the perfect tool for me to get on the right track with learning Italian!
By the way, I was watching on TV Italian series “Mia amica géniale” and, since most of the events were taking place in Naples, it was hard to understand because they were speaking with local dialect. One other thing: because of my line of work in entertainment, I was working one day with Nicoletta Mantovani, who was married to Luciano Pavarotti. I tried to speak with her in Italian and she complimented me on my skills, which was very flattering. That gives me even more motivation to study Italian!😊

The end of July we traveled to Illinois for a family reunion on my Mom's Italian side AND a cousin from Italy and his wife were there and I got to meet them and talked to them. I wished I had more time but, of course, he was the center of attention and so many other American cousins there they ALL wanted to talk to him! lol But I will continue to write letters and we will keep in touch and the From Zero to Italian course and Manu and his wonderful team gave me the ability and the confidence to speak Italian with them. My cousin DID speak English, but, together we did speak Italian as well. And we made that start and we will continue so it can only get better in the future.
I love the way you teach .you are a very loving and caring man with a lot of patience. Hopefully in future I can write them in your beautiful language Italian....Molto Grazie
Thank you so much for your wonderful comment! We're thrilled that you enjoy our teaching style and that you feel the love and passion we put into every lesson. Keep up the great work! 🥰
Si, Manu. I am 75 years old and have been working this language for 2 years. It seems like two steps forward, 1.5 steps backward. I have yet managed to have any kind of real conversation with anyone who speaks the language. 'Non la capisco' is used most often. You have my committment, and full attention (for what it's worth), for 30 days.
Grazie mille for your dedication! 🌟 Remember, language learning is like a dance - sometimes you take a step back to move forward stronger! 💪 You've got this, and we’re here to help make each step count. Let’s make these 30 days amazing together!
Thank you, I'm always so overwhelmed with the amount of resources, I'm never sure which one to pick. I know quite a bit of Italian, but I still struggle with formulating sentences. I'm not a native English speaker, but I speak English quite fluently so this should go well.
Buongiorno, Manu! Si, i'll gonna use your methods and try my best to return every Sunday to see how much i progressed with your methods, because from what i see people are really enjoying it. A dopoo!
@@swadhabugaliya9323 nice to meet you. Where are you from in India. it's doing well But sometimes i don't have time to practice bcz of work but when I'm free that time I learn actually what about you?☺️☺️
Conosco un po' di italiano e il mio livello in questa lingua è A2, e ho ancora qualche problema con la scrittura e la grammatica, ma la mia pronuncia della lingua è buona, e questo video mi aiuterà di più perché imparo solo da casa da solo. Grazie di cuore
Grazie mille! 😊 Your enthusiasm is inspiring, and we are so glad to be part of your Italian journey! Becoming fluent is a wonderful goal, and with your passion and dedication, you're definitely on the right path 💪

Queensland eh? Anche sono di Queensland in Australia, abito a Brisbane. I've been trying to learn italian at least 5 times a week for an hour or so for the past couple of months. This is a great video, i was super confused about the adjective placement but it makes sense now that you've said they usually follow the noun. I was trying to place things in the order they come in in english, thank you very much. I hope you tune into state of origin tonight!
@1:25:41 Not only do vowels get lost with the articles, they also get lost in sentences when the vowels of different words meet. So an ending -e and a leading a- will slur together and one vowel (usually, it seems, the preceding vowel) well disappear in spoken language. It shows up on paper, but doesn't get articulated.
sei proprio un bravo insegnate! I said the same thing....you are like a child again...to learn from the beginning. The fastest way is to immerse yourself in the culture and break through the intense frustration by being around Italian people and I mean Italy. You have to USE it and also get the sounds and the mouth to get used to it. Listen to ITalian as you fall asleep......get it in your head. It must be an intense desire not a hobby. Reading aloud or just LOOKING at the words also gets it into your head and works the mouth. I listened to TOPO GIGO and childrens shows in Italian, better than infomercials
Manu I'm only starting, but already I've got a head start! The vowel sounds are EXACTLY the same in te Reo Maori, which I can pronounce easily(bc I'm from Aotearoa New Zealand) - I'm looking forward to this journey❤❤😀😀😀
After years of trying to learn Italian - using Duolingo, Living Languages, and Rosetta Stone - I am finally learning Italian through Italy Made Easy!
❤️ you are a wonderful student, Paula! Thank you for learning with us!
Living languages and Rosetta Stone are just fine. I don't see how anyone can diss these.

People don't realize how great it is to learn a foreign language for free
Seriously
The full program is $40 a month (at half price). He's such a fantastic teacher that it's worth it, but I can't really afford it. Maybe later.
@@auntiegliz737 No matter how much money I have, I don't have a way to buy anything on the Internet.
In the Balkans,almost no one has a credit card💀
I do!!!
I'm a student and my parents probably wouldn't agree with my idea of buying an Italian course.
Even if I collect money, I still don't have a credit card.
I have learned more in 90 minutes than I have on Duolingo in three months. 🇮🇹❤️ Grazie Mille

Welcome to Italy, Chathmini! Don't be afraid of Italian language: with practice and commitment, you'll achieve wonderful results. Thank you for learning with our videos. A presto 🤗
Manu your the best teacher and you have helped me so much
thank you so much, Harrison! ☺️
Thank you very much! Here in South Korea, it's difficult to find a good Italian study material. Your videos are very useful. Please keep uploading videos like this!
🤗 we love that we can help you learn all the way to South Korea! thank you for appreciating our videos and for being here with us ❤️
How do you say in Italian - what is it called? or what's it called? or what do you call it? or what's its name? or what is the name of it? in Italian?
What is called/what's called/what do you call it all translate to "come si chiama?", while what's its name/what is the name of it literally translate to "che nome ha? / qual è il suo nome?", but if you're not talking about people I'd say the first sounds more natural (and I'd add "this object", so "come si chiama questo oggetto?"
As an RN certified in Neuroscience Nursing, I was excited to learn that acquiring and using a new language involves a different part of the brain than that of one's mother tongue. What this means in nursing is that those with a stroke or injury to the portion of their brain involving their primary language may be able to communicate in a language they had learned later! The ability to communicate is so important in recovering! Although I'm now learning the predominant secondary language in my region (and encouraging others to do the same), Italian is by far my favorite language. Manu, I hope you will see this message and convey it to others. I love you and your teaching method, and I'm applying your principles to Spanish!
Thank you so much for sharing this fascinating insight! We’re thrilled to hear that Italian has a special place for you. Keep up the amazing work! 🌟
Hello Manu, Even I am starting just few days ago. I want to say thank you so much for this video. I have been planning and learn on and off since 5 years ago and for the first time I found myself really happy to start again learn Italian. I don’t want to think this is hard for me to do but you just gave me a courage to learn again so Thank you and I am way too grateful to find a great teacher just like you. Grazie Mile Manu. 🎉💐🌞
Ciao! 🌟 Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us! It's inspiring to hear that you’re ready to dive back into learning Italian! Learning a language can feel challenging at times, but with consistency and a positive mindset (which you definitely have!), you'll go far. 🥰
You making it easier for me to learn Italian language,am from Sierra Leone thanks very much I need for
Thank you for learning Italian with us! 🤗
sei proprio un bravo insegnate! I said the same thing....you are like a child again...to learn from the beginning. The fastest way is to immerse yourself in the culture and break through the intense frustration by being around Italian people and I mean Italy. You have to USE it and also get the sounds and the mouth to get used to it
I love watching your videos. I really wanted to learn Italian with your site, to speak better with my family in Italy, Unfortunately I couldn't afford the up in price. But I will continue to watch your TH-cam videos because I enjoy your teaching.
The other day I received the reply to my letter to my cousin in Italy. I can figure out most of what the letter says. My cousin also wrote in the letter "Mi ha fatto piacere ricevere la tua lettera (complimenti per il corretto italiano)." The "corretto italiano" is largely thanks to Manu and all of the team responsible for the "From Zero to Italian" course I have been taking. Grazie mille!
Thank you so much! We love to hear it!
Hi Manu! Just back from a fantastic holiday in Italy. I was so pleased when a shopkeeper asked me if I spoke Italian …! Un po, I said, but it was all down you and your superb course! Even my Italian speaking friend was impressed with my limited ability to string a few sentences together. Keep up the good work. We’re back in July to try again! 😮
❤️ wonderful, Mark! We are very glad to hear our course helped you! 🙏
ow do you say in Italian - what is it called? or what's it called? or what do you call it? or what's its name? or what is the name of it? in Italian?
ow do you say in Italian - what is it called? or what's it called? or what do you call it? or what's its name? or what is the name of it? in Italian?
@@sexymanicou3403you can say "come si chiama?". For example you point an object and ask "come si chiama questo oggetto?"(How is this object called?"), or even with personal name, like "come si chiama il tuo amico?"(what's your friend's name)
This is fantastic....questo e fantastico, e vero.....grazie Manu
Mi piace ItalyMade EasyPodcast. Ascolto quando vado per una passeggiata. Grazie, Manu
grazie a te, Maria! 🥰 siamo contenti di farti compagnia quando vai a fare una passeggiata!
Manu! Its been 3 months since your last video! Please come back! I love the 1-hr videos, senza inglese! Will be signing up soon for the subscription on your website.
Thank you for your feedback, we are happy to know you appreciate our contents! Continue following us for more🥰
Sì, Manu,
grazie mille per il tuo corso
Grazie mille, Manu! This has to be one of the best videos on TH-cam. Matt di Perth.
I am enrolled in Part One of the Beginner's Course of "From Zero to Italian." I am a little over halfway through the course. I have memory problems and sometimes I need to refresh things I have learned in previous lessons. I have a lot of other tools that Manu has recommended: my own Quizlet sets; online Dictionary; online Verb Conjugation Tool. I also regularly research my own Italian ancestry online in documents in microfilms on Family Search. Sometimes I have gone back through the lessons to refresh my memory. These videos can serve the same purpose. So I will be watching all of these even as I progress with the lessons. So, Grazie mille Manu!
❤️ we are glad and grateful for having you as a student! Grazie mille a te!
@@italymadeeasy I am glad and grateful to be a student. My goal is to someday have dreams in Italian.
wow, wonderful! 😍 you'll get there! 💤🇮🇹
@@italymadeeasy Something interesting happened today. I took your advice about Immersion and I watched several episodes of "Portale del Verde" and then I watched an interview on QVC Italia and sometimes when somebody spoke I could see the words in my head. I did not know what all of them meant, but, I could see them and even sometimes "corrected mistakes." For example one time she said a word and in my head I saw some of the letters as "...sch..." and then I thought and realized that no it should be spelled "...sc..." not "...sch..." Things like that.
Also in reference to any Italian content whether audio-visual, audio or even written such as official histories of comuni [Found on the official websites of the comuni] after more lessons I go back and find previous content and read or listen or watch it again and I am amazed at how much more I understand. So, I also use Immersion in that way. It is a good measure of how much I have improved which gives me a good feeling of encouragement. It's kind of a little reward for putting in the work.
I do need to get better at speaking more quickly without having to think about how to say something. Some things are because I haven't learned them yet but sometimes even things I should know I stumble with how to be familiar and natural with it the same as in conversations in English.
@WhyChromosomesmusic. what online verb conjugation tool do you use? because I have been looking for resources such as that.
I'm so grateful for all of the learning you've shared. You are awesome! So awesome. Grazie mille
Grazie mille for your support! 😊 We're so glad that the content has been helpful to you. Learning a language is such a rewarding journey, and it's amazing to hear that you're enjoying it.

How do you say in Italian - what is it called? or what's it called? or what do you call it? or what's its name? or what is the name of it? in Italian?
By the way, I was watching on TV Italian series “Mia amica géniale” and, since most of the events were taking place in Naples, it was hard to understand because they were speaking with local dialect. One other thing: because of my line of work in entertainment, I was working one day with Nicoletta Mantovani, who was married to Luciano Pavarotti. I tried to speak with her in Italian and she complimented me on my skills, which was very flattering. That gives me even more motivation to study Italian!😊
🤩 wonderful! You are very lucky to have met Nicoletta Mantovani, and great job trying to practise your Italian with her! 🤗

thank you Manu. I was struggling with italian grammar
My first language is Spanish so I get to understand a lot of words already. Than you for the video.
thank you for being here!🥰
Your method is fantastic & very learner focused
The end of July we traveled to Illinois for a family reunion on my Mom's Italian side AND a cousin from Italy and his wife were there and I got to meet them and talked to them. I wished I had more time but, of course, he was the center of attention and so many other American cousins there they ALL wanted to talk to him! lol But I will continue to write letters and we will keep in touch and the From Zero to Italian course and Manu and his wonderful team gave me the ability and the confidence to speak Italian with them. My cousin DID speak English, but, together we did speak Italian as well. And we made that start and we will continue so it can only get better in the future.
Thank you so much for you feedback! You are doing wonderful. Thanks for leaning Italian with us 🙏
@@italymadeeasy Grazie a Lei!
I love the way you teach .you are a very loving and caring man with a lot of patience. Hopefully in future I can write them in your beautiful language Italian....Molto Grazie

Thank you Manu. You are a really good teacher.
🙏 we appreciate you being here with us! ❤️
This is amazing! My husband is pushing me to really learn his language.
Grazie!❤
Buona fortuna! 😍💪
Si, Manu. I am 75 years old and have been working this language for 2 years. It seems like two steps forward, 1.5 steps backward. I have yet managed to have any kind of real conversation with anyone who speaks the language. 'Non la capisco' is used most often. You have my committment, and full attention (for what it's worth), for 30 days.
Grazie mille for your dedication! 🌟 Remember, language learning is like a dance - sometimes you take a step back to move forward stronger! 💪 You've got this, and we’re here to help make each step count. Let’s make these 30 days amazing together!
Grazie Manu! Questo è estremamente generoso da parte tua e un tale dono per noi.
😘 you are all amazing students, you deserve it! grazie per le belle parole, Kathleen!
Hi Manu the reason older people often have greater vocabulary is because we studied Latin at school. It's not taught much in the UK any more.
Thank you, I'm always so overwhelmed with the amount of resources, I'm never sure which one to pick. I know quite a bit of Italian, but I still struggle with formulating sentences.
I'm not a native English speaker, but I speak English quite fluently so this should go well.
ciao Laure, welcome on board! we hope this course will suit your needs 🥰

Ciao e benvenuta! 🥰
Grazie from Puerto Rico!!!
Queensland eh? Anche sono di Queensland in Australia, abito a Brisbane.
I've been trying to learn italian at least 5 times a week for an hour or so for the past couple of months. This is a great video, i was super confused about the adjective placement but it makes sense now that you've said they usually follow the noun. I was trying to place things in the order they come in in english, thank you very much. I hope you tune into state of origin tonight!
Thank you so much for your comment, Thomas! We are glad this video clarified the placement of adjectives for you 🤗
Excellent stuff thank you. @4:51:33 I think you have Church marked as heart e.g. chiesa.
Si, Manu! Grazie, Signori!
Grazie a te, Baptist! 😊
@1:25:41 Not only do vowels get lost with the articles, they also get lost in sentences when the vowels of different words meet. So an ending -e and a leading a- will slur together and one vowel (usually, it seems, the preceding vowel) well disappear in spoken language. It shows up on paper, but doesn't get articulated.
sei proprio un bravo insegnate! I said the same thing....you are like a child again...to learn from the beginning. The fastest way is to immerse yourself in the culture and break through the intense frustration by being around Italian people and I mean Italy. You have to USE it and also get the sounds and the mouth to get used to it. Listen to ITalian as you fall asleep......get it in your head. It must be an intense desire not a hobby. Reading aloud or just LOOKING at the words also gets it into your head and works the mouth. I listened to TOPO GIGO and childrens shows in Italian, better than infomercials
Thank you for being here! 😍
Wonderful presentation.
Hi Manu,
youre English is very very good!!!!
Greeetings from Germany 😊
Great explanation of present tense verbs. Thanks!
🙏 thank you for being here, Christopher!
Manu I'm only starting, but already I've got a head start! The vowel sounds are EXACTLY the same in te Reo Maori, which I can pronounce easily(bc I'm from Aotearoa New Zealand) - I'm looking forward to this journey❤❤😀😀😀
