You are amazing. I've been looking for a teacher like you for years! THANK YOU for explaining the various difference in our languages and how we express ourselves. I've already learned so much in one video! I will continue to watch. Grazie mille, Nicole Tomassini
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback Spirit Therapy, è un piacere per me! Un abbraccione 😊
Definitely a great lesson for students to begin understanding the tenses!
Questo è molto utile! Quando parlo italiano è difficile per me con le passato prossimo e cose come questo, ma questo lezione aiutato molto bene. Grazie mille
Episodio 19 di Ask Manu Italiano! Oggi parliamo ancora di verbi e più esattamente di come scegliere il tempo verbale giusto, in base a quello che vogliamo dire!
Episode 19 of Ask Manu Italiano! Today we're still talking about verbs and, more specifically, of how we can choose the right verbal tense, based on what we want to say!
Are you going to do also more advanced lessons in fuure or this channel will be always focused on basic or simple stuff?
Sei un grande insegnante ... e sei incredibilmente bello. Mi stai rendendo l'apprendimento così facile, e mi piace molto la tua tecnica di insegnamento. Grazie per avermi aiutato a imparare l'italiano, signore.
Manu - once again - succinct, great useful explanation! Thanks!
Thank you! I have been wondering about tenses for so long! You explained it so well! Grazie mille!!
❤️
Questo è così utile, soprattutto quando si parla sulle differenze tra gli usi italiana e inglese del futuro. Grazie!
Sono contento che ti sia piaciuto! Grazie a te!
Intro is great. Haven't seen any other lecturer with such a cool intro
Thank you!❤️
I love this guys energy ! I think he would be a great teacher ! I just think that for the price....it’s a little too much for me. I feel like sticking to books and studying could work a ton.
Dude! awesome video. knowing the conjugation of regulars and irregular verbs in Italian is one thing but you explaining when to actually use them beats the hell out of quite a few websites that for some reason struggle to explain this! keep up the good work
Thanks to you, Zaid Alsabea!
How do I know which ending to use in the past tense? For example, when the verb is about me, it ends in an "O", but if it's him/her/you, it ends with an "A". But when it comes to past tense that rule gets thrown out the door, meaning that if you want to say I spoke Italian, you say "ho Parlato l'italianto", but if you want to say he spoke italian, you also say "parlato". Shouldn't it be 'ha parlata l'italiano'. This changing of endings happens with other verbs too. Can you explain the rule behind it please!
Thank you this is hard to learn because I didn't know that the verbs were used differently
Yeah, without knowing the tenses this lesson would make no sense!! Sorry!
Italy Made Easy yyeah I recently learned how the infinitive is used and how the gerund is used in italian. You make it easier to understand thank you
You need a video like this for the all the past congiuntivo tenses because that is where I am stuck right now. Lol.
I am a new subscriber and it's very helpful how you explain things! I recently moved to Italy and I am taking a course which is finishing up tomorrow! So your videos helped me
Thanks Manu! A great video - very useful!
Grazie mille, Sky Blue English! Happy to be helping!
Grazie mille, Mano. Il video è stato molto utile :D
I don't agree about only using present tense to speak about future events. Present is a more colloquial option, but they are both correct in speaking. You could say "domani parlerò italiano" to achieve a slightly higher register. In written form I would always opt for the future. I like to be more precise and use the whole variety of Italian tenses.
you are a great teacher
Manu tu sei il miglior professore - ur great! Thank you for the clear explanation - will definitely take your online class -- grazie millie 😃
Ti aspettiamo! 😊
Thank you sir
This was great. Thanks so much. I think I'll study with you from now on :)
So happy about it!! Thank you! 😘
Grazie mille!
Very helpful
It is interesting that in Turkish we can also use future tense for assumptions.There are several other grammatical similarities that surprised me during my time learning Italian. That’s when I told myself maybe I should learn Italian through Turkish. But nah, not many free material for that I suppose
Wonderful explanation.Grazie
😘
Manu, e il massimo! Grazie mille per un altra grande lezione!
Grazia a te, Joee!
Thanks.. Am learning very well
😊
Ciao Manu , in a complex sentence , if the main clause is in a Future tense , what tenses can you use in the Subordinate clause ?? Grazie
Hai un bellissimo modo di spiegare, Manu.
Grazie mille Gloria
I thought these 4 above + conditional pres. & subjunctive pres. used for conversation , not just asking for directions but just a reg. conversation in caffé or so ..
Grazie 💞
🥰
how about the future tense in the written language ? is it used 'normally' or as you said in the video ?
in the written form it tends to be used "properly", yes!!
Ciao Manu, hai detto che si usa il futuro se non si è sicuro di qualcosa.. Ma, questo è per congiuntivo anche, si? Cos'è più usato nelle conversazioni? Futuro semplice o con congiuntivo? Grazie!
Non proprio! Il congiuntivo è molto complicato... lo usiamo per lo più per frasi relative che sono soggettive (I think she is pretty - penso che lei sia bella) oppure dove il soggetto della frase principale è diverso da quello della relativa (I want you to study - voglio che voi studiate).
here's the working link for the other video: www.italymadeeasy.com/ask019/
So, when it comes to writing/texting, using the other tenses are grammatically correct. However, it's common to speak in the present tense?
Correct!
Sorry, I know I'm a bit late to the party with this comment as this video is more than 2 years old haha, but in another video there was an example sentence "ci pensi che domani saremo in Italia?" and my question is that there doesn't seem to be doubt that "tomorrow we will be in Italy", so why use the future? Is it the "ci pensi" that gives an idea of uncertainty? Or is there another reason? Thanks!! (And thanks as always ffor the super helpful videos)
I don't know if these comments are reviewed anymore, but where do I find the second half of the lesson ... the part that's mentioned three minutes into the video about another episode all about tense? It says to see the link at the end of the video but I don't see it. Is it too obvious or something? I enjoyed this episode and would like to see the other part.
William Nelli, i might be a oittle late but he said in the descreption. Yes i am very late lol
I'm wondering if it should be might instead of must .. like "it might be 7" ... maybe?
1. Did I understand it right that esere in the past tenses is usually used in the imperfetto and for the prossimo one has to use ho stato instead of esere?
2. Can I change the last example in this way?
Ieri mentre nuotava, Luca stavo esaminando un delfino.
1. No. Did I say that?
2. Kinda. "Luca stava esaminando un delfino" means that Luca was examining (as in what a doctor does) a dolphin. Regardless of that. using two imperfetto's is possible but you would be telling a different story. The story you tell with your sentence is, basically, that Lucas was simultaneously swimming and examining a dolphin.

Thank you so much. I get it.
Honestly if I had the money I would love to go though your courses.
❤️
hi , on the streets in Italy in WHICH tenses does one use in conversation, to ask for s.t. or info .??? just speaking .. thnx
Usually Simple Present... "Scusi, dov'è via xxx?" or " Scusi, mi sa dire dove si trova..." and so on...
Ciao. Saluti da Varsavia... Studio Italiano da un po' di tempo...ho una domanda sul tempo Passato Remoto... sempre pensavo che in una frase tipo "10 anni fa sono andato a NY" è obbligatorio usare Remoto... perché si usa Passato Prossimo?
Si possono usare entrambi perché stai parlando di un'azione che si è conclusa nel passato 👍 il passato remoto non è così usato, specie nel Nord Italia, le persone usano il "passato prossimo" per tutti gli eventi del passato, anche quello di molti anni fa. Al Sud invece, il passato remoto è molto usato (anche troppo) persino per azioni successe ieri. I'm from North Italy and I've never used "passato remoto" in my whole life 😂 I just use "passato prossimo" for everything even to talk about things happened many years ago.
👍👍👍👍
👍😊
Hi! So am I correct in thinking you would never say “sto imparando”, you would always say “imparo”, because it’s something you are doing and there is no doubt?
“Sto imparando” if your DOING... is a good solution 😉
@@italymadeeasy
Grazie Manu, I am still unsure when to use though 🤣
So I should use “sto imparando” at the time I am doing the action, but if I’m just telling someone that in general I am learning, then I use “imparo”?
Grazie mille
“sto imparando” va bene! 😉

È egli omo?
Italiano è più facile se sai francese. "Lui ha visto" "il a vu" "he saw.... oupsy". Less obvious for english speakers.
That's what I was thinking. I learned French and it helps me pick up grammar structure very easily.
RobertEssence I'm french and this video made me realize that we also tend to use the present tense for future actions the same way it's explained here.
Actually, learning how to use tenses in italian kinda makes me "relearn" my own language. :D
Grazie mille Manu.
Also in Spanish, this particular sentences è uguale! "El ha visto"
