I’ve been taking private Italian lessons for 3 weeks…..this is absolutely amazing. This info is necessary prerequisite gold. I never comment on social media but needed to for this. Instantly following 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
I'm so happy to hear that :) I post weekly Italian lessons on my other channel @intrepiditalian if you'd like to subscribe th-cam.com/users/intrepiditalianwithmichele
I am a native Spanish speaker, I'm learning Italian, it's a beautiful language with so many similarities to Spanish, verbs in their infinitive form also have three possible endings which are basically the same but without the e. For I, we say yo, for You we say tu, for He/She we say el/ella... the point is they're very similar.
This is the best explanation I've seen for Italian verbs. They get so confusing and I never knew where/how to start learning them. Thank you for breaking them down to basics and for supplying lists/examples I can start with! 😀
Yay! I’m so happy to hear it helped 😀 if you enjoyed this then you’ll love my Italian A1, A2, and B1 courses which follow a similar structure. You can find out more at theintrepidguide.teachable.com
EXCELLENT! First teacher I 've seen refer to irregular verbs as being stem changing within a FAMILY! This just organized my brain!! Major insight for me! Thanks! I will now create a graphic/chart of these relationships!
Grazie mille per questo. It surprises me how many Italian language teachers on TH-cam omit basics like ' What is a mode ? ', ' What is a tense ? ' or ' What are Parts of Speech ', usually dismissing them as ' dry ' or ' boring ' grammar. I promise you it's often difficult to simply find out what they are in English. I had no idea verbs, nouns etc were grouped together as ' Parts of Speech '. It's also interesting to see how many teachers repeat so often phrases like ' Don't worry ', ' It seems scary ' or ' You don't need to know that '. I bow to your experience but I reckon there are thousands like myself who don't have any fear but we severely lack the structure of how various languages are put together and appreciate when people like yourself explain so called ' Simple grammar concepts ' to those of us for whom they are anything but. Cheers.
Figurati! I'm so happy you appreciate the "boring" details. I really like learning about them too as they great for building confidence. Are you currently learning Italian? What is your level? In bocca al lupo!
@@theintrepidguide Si, provo studiare la lingua ogni giorno. Direi che è dappertutto ! Meaning that it's all over the place ! Historically vocabulary has never been an issue, putting phrases together has. I'd heard of nouns, verbs etc but never knew that they can be classed together or how they interact. Grammar, like any subject, doesn't have to be boring, it depends on how it's taught. I like that you mention ' patterns ', I find that sort of mindset helps me a lot. As a suggestion / request, while I'm well aware that tenses are different between Italian & English I'd appreciate any video where you compare and contrast. Auguri.
That’s great! I appreciate the feedback too 😀 Grazie mille ❤️If you enjoy my teaching style, you might be interested in the upcoming release of my online video Italian courses. For updates on its release you can follow my Instagram @intrepiditalian or join my email list here bit.ly/TIG-SignUp
the way you explain is absolutely simple and understandable, i speak spanish so i have the idea of the conjugation of verbs but this video made it even easier for me! huge thanks
Awesome video! I've tried to learn italian numerous times and always lose motivation because I was so confused how words change when in a sentence. Once I get my head around this i'm confident when I start learning nouns and putting them in sentences I will continue and finally be able to master the language.
So glad you enjoyed it 😀 It just takes time and patience. I have 3 online Italian courses coming out very soon so you may want to join if you need extra support. Join my email list for updates bit.ly/TIG-SignUp
This is the best video I have ever seen that explains verbs and conjugation. If I would have seen a video like this in beginner Italian, it would have made it much easier to I understand.
I need your help, I read that is In Italian the 2nd to last syllable is by default most usually prolonged or stress like Italiano (it-ta-li-A-no) or legère(lay-GEH-ray) or Nicolo. It recently learnt that the placement of accent marks(diacritical) marks can affect the rhythm (stress/accent) of the word, like Itáliano(i-tA-li-a-no) or lègere (lÈH-gay-ray) or Nícolo (NÍ-co-lo). The word I am trying to understand is a name , if Perugini= (pe-ru-GI-ni), would this be correct= Pèrugini( PEH-ru-gi-ni)
After your little conjugation quiz yesterday, 6/27/2023 I just had to come back here and really pay attention to these lessons, thank you, Michele, for being such a good teacher😊
That was truly helpful…. I have been speaking English my whole life and really never thought about the conjugation of verbs😉. In all sincerity that was helpful.
I started Italian learning 2 weeks ago, initially I was wondering why there are no pronouns in Italy language. Slowly I found out that the pronouns are combined with the verbs. This clip is really useful which it gathers all the frequently used verbs. There is always a key to unlock the language tool box in order to learn fast, and you are going to be 1 of the important key in my Italian language learning, thank you so much.
Grazie! Your explanations are great! I’ve been teaching French and English at the federal government for more than 15 years now and really appreciate seeing how other teachers explain grammar. I’m sure I’ll use your explanations as inspiration the next time I teach my beginner students. I finally feel as though I have a better approach to learning verb conjugation in the indicative present in Italian. Duolingo just throws it at you, so this was very helpful. Grazie mille!

Hi Michele. I've just discovered your channel and it's fab. I'm pretty fluent in French and have been learning Spanish for a few months but have always fancied learning Italian too as it seems so similar to French and Spanish and I might as well try to learn them side by side. I'm doing Duolingo which is fine as far as it goes (for random phrases like 'My purple lion is in the windmill!')but I need to understand grammatical structure and conjugation in order for it to sink in. Your channel hits the mark perfectly so you now have a new subscriber. Keep up the great work. It is appreciated! Ciao🇮🇹
Benvenuto/a to the channel, and thank you so much for your kind words! It sounds like you’ve already got a great foundation with French and Spanish-Italian will feel like the perfect addition to your Romance language journey. And I totally understand what you mean about Duolingo; it’s fun, but diving into grammar and conjugation really helps everything click. I’m so glad my channel is helping you with that! If you ever have questions or need help with a specific topic, feel free to ask. Buon studio e buona fortuna con l’italiano! 🇮🇹✨ P.S. I post daily Italian lessons over at Intrepid Italian with Michele, here is the link th-cam.com/users/intrepiditalianwithmichele

I have done Italian,French,German and Spanish at Beginners Level.I do not understand any of it.The Grammar,,Speaking, Listening,Etc.,I do not understand.In all the Languages I have done,I would say I have got two out of ten.I shall be doing the Italian Course again next month.I will get two out of ten again.I will do my best.My best is not good enough.I shall give it a try.
Excellent explanation. Thank you. Respectfully I suggest not to use a background music with these classes. It sort of muffles your voice and it is very distracting. Grazie mille!
Thank you for the feedback. I post weekly Italian lessons on my other channel @intrepiditalian if you'd like to subscribe th-cam.com/users/intrepiditalianwithmichele
Just to let you know,from my last comment,I have now given up on the Italian Course I was doing. I did my best,but my best was not good enough.I ask myself,should I give it another go,in the next two years.I do not know.There must be a way.
I'm so sorry to hear that. Please don't give up. Please follow me on Instagram @intrepiditalian for daily lessons and DM me so I can help you overcome this challenge :)
#1. If you look at the small round circle-it looks like a tire-along the bottom right of the video, your can slow down and speed up the video. Sometimes I speed up when I am reviewing vocab. #2 Sometimes that tire/circle allows you to change into your native or a foreign language for captions as well. #3 The three little doubts at the bottom right underneath the video sometimes will allow you to see the transcript of the video.
Be careful, as you all tend to pronounce single consonants as double. For example you read -ano as -anno and the opposite, you read double as single, like sono=sonno (instead of "they are" becomes "sleep"). So single consonant are single, double are double, simple right??
I know this is an old vid but I have a question. Why is lei seen as formal? I thought lei meant she and lui meant he. Why would they be described as formal or informal when their just describing someone’s gender.
lei = she Lei = you (formal) notice the capital letter which is not always used. It’s optional. lui = he Also note that in Southern Italy, voi is formal form, not Lei 😊 Don’t think of it as just gender but as how to correctly address people according to formality and number. This is just a characteristic of the language that must be learned just like in English we have words that are spelled the same but mean different things eg. ‘I read every day’ vs ‘I read the book yesterday’.

I'm confused is the -ate ending for you plural or for you formal?
excellent
are the courses videos? interactive?
Yes 😊
do Italian verbs all end in "RE" ?
The part where she said mangio for all of those different verb forms is interesting.
Apparently Russian is the same (I don't speak Russian by the way)
But Apparently the reason when some russians speak English and they say "I go to store" instead of "I go to THE store." Is because when you translate the Russian literally into English it's "I go to store." The word "the" is Implied not literally said

what does "pattun" mean?
Link please
Ok so the stem changes, for the irregular verbs. For example dire, if you were to say “I say” it would be io dico. But if I were to say “you say” it would be voi dite. Meaning the stems would be dic and dit. I’m just a little confused why they change and if it’s just something I have to memorize.
I have done Italian,French,German and
Spanish at Beginners Level.I do not
understand any of it.The Grammar,,Speaking,
Listening,Etc.,I do not understand.In all the
Languages I have done,I would say I have
got two out of ten.I shall be doing the
Italian Course again next month.I will get
two out of ten again.I will do my best.My
best is not good enough.I shall give it a try.
Oh, it reminded me of the game Ages of Empires when you said those verbs. :) Funny, and isn't Italian related to old latin?
Yes! Italian is the closest language to Latin 😉
Love the tips! Great video explanation but that background music is kind of annoying/distracting.
Thank you 😊

Explained well,but maybe 2,possibly 3 videos would make it all easier to digest!Otherwise,as a novice,It Is Daunting...
Excellent explanation. Thank you. Respectfully I suggest not to use a background music with these classes. It sort of muffles your voice and it is very distracting. Grazie mille!
Thank you for the feedback. I post weekly Italian lessons on my other channel @intrepiditalian if you'd like to subscribe th-cam.com/users/intrepiditalianwithmichele
First few seconds I though that was Cecilia Bartoli teaching Italian 😂
Just to let you know,from my last comment,I have now given up on the Italian Course I was doing.
I did my best,but my best was not good enough.I ask myself,should I give it another go,in the next
two years.I do not know.There must be a way.
I'm so sorry to hear that. Please don't give up. Please follow me on Instagram @intrepiditalian for daily lessons and DM me so I can help you overcome this challenge :)
Great video and she’s wonderful. My only issue is that she goes way to fast. Please slow down for us older novice learners.
#1. If you look at the small round circle-it looks like a tire-along the bottom right of the video, your can slow down and speed up the video. Sometimes I speed up when I am reviewing vocab.
#2 Sometimes that tire/circle allows you to change into your native or a foreign language for captions as well.
#3 The three little doubts at the bottom right underneath the video sometimes will allow you to see the transcript of the video.
Italian use the present continuos with a gerund for example Io sto mangiando, so its not correct the first information
I wont live long enough to get the hang of conjugation!
Be careful, as you all tend to pronounce single consonants as double. For example you read -ano as -anno and the opposite, you read double as single, like sono=sonno (instead of "they are" becomes "sleep"). So single consonant are single, double are double, simple right??
the stems change and i dont know why--this is difficult
still don't understand when to use -isco and when -o by -ire Verbs
😊
I know this is an old vid but I have a question. Why is lei seen as formal? I thought lei meant she and lui meant he. Why would they be described as formal or informal when their just describing someone’s gender.
lei = she
Lei = you (formal) notice the capital letter which is not always used. It’s optional.
lui = he
Also note that in Southern Italy, voi is formal form, not Lei 😊 Don’t think of it as just gender but as how to correctly address people according to formality and number.
This is just a characteristic of the language that must be learned just like in English we have words that are spelled the same but mean different things eg. ‘I read every day’ vs ‘I read the book yesterday’.
