@italymadeeasy
Your grasp of the nuances of English is SO impressive.
You're so good at breaking down all the different definitions for the various ways "so" can be used. Context is key so this is way better than me just trying to look up different definitions in a dictionary. Thank you this was super helpful!
❤️
Mano, you are really the BEST Italian Teacher I have ever seen! I mean it!! Awesome and pretty useful video as always! Grazie Mille!
Grazie! How many new words did you learn? 😊
@@italymadeeasy Great question! The new interesting phrases that I'm happy to learn them today through your great lesson are:
Penso di si, Penso di No , e cosi , ti augoro e sei un bambino educato, first time I get to know that polite means in Italiano, educato!!
💪Benissimo
Sono d'accordo con te
That's good to know that adverbs do not change gender. I'm glad you took the detour to explain that!
😘
@@italymadeeasy I love that lasts yeah bro
If you think about it this way, an adverb modifies a verb which does not have a gender and an adjective modifies a noun which does have a gender. So (😊), that is another way to remember it.
@daCubanaqt Oh, yeah, duh! That makes total sense, thank you!
Still being early in my learning journey, it sometimes takes so many conscious steps to break down what I'm saying or why I have to say it in a certain way. Some of it is so easy and flows well and I don't struggle over. And every once in a while it's like 😵💫🤯😶🧐🤔😣😫😪😮💨🥴
Luckily that's the joy of learning! I love that feeling that my brain is streeetching and absorbing more.
I learned so many phrases here! Even if I only remember five for now, my speaking has been enhanced!
😅👍🏽
It's not that bad 😊
What a great help this lesson was to understand the many ways “so” can be used! Thanks for the various examples you gave!👍👍👍
..grazie, Manu, per questo video molto utile!! Penso che devo guardarlo tantissime volte per capire e memorizzare tutte le diversi situazioni per esprimere 'so' con diverse parole.😂 Cordiali saluti da Germania M
La pratica è un'ottima scelta, Michaela, bravissima! 😚Quante parole nuove hai imparato?
Ciao .. sono fuori tema ma ho una domada
Qual è la frase più giusta
' l'anno scorso sono andato al mare e ogni sera magiavo fuori'
O
'L'anno scorso andavo al mare e ogni sera mangiavo fuori'
the "blablabla" did it for me, best videos to learn ever!
Extremely well presented. Thank you!

Grazie a te, Monica! ❤️
beautiful explanations
Thank you for your support!😍
Excelente explicacion en el uso de expresiones como las que indica usted en esta charla. Algo similar sucede con el español, ya que tenemos muchas maneras de decir lo mismo, dándole un mayor adorno, a veces hasta poético a nuestros idiomas.
Muchas gracias, y sinceras felicitaciones por sus enseñanzas.
Amo questa lezione Manu grazie
Grazie Eliza!
Grazie mille!
Grazie a te 😍 we are happy to have you on board!

Ciao caro sono contento di te un grande maestro tutte del mondo sono Tanzaniano
😊
Grazie
Echoing others comments here, I find you very detailed in your explanation and context. You have helped me understand Italian 10 fold
Grazie🤩
Manu sei grande! Ti auguro di restare così per tutta la vita.
❤️
The problem seems not to be that there are many ways of saying "so" in Italian, but that just one word in English stands for many things!
That's a general problem, for us italian speakers, not limited to the word "so"...
Not a problem, simply a different language 😉
@@italymadeeasy certo, il cinese è più difficile...
@@marcotagliavini9128 Not a problem, you have been conditioned to think it is a problem. Italian derives from Latin and has more language flexibility.
@@jaytrees7304mmm, probably your answer to my comment is a demonstration of another linguistic "problem", or the semantic difference of similar words in different languages: in italian the word problem is not always "dramatical", it means many times a simple "difficulty", not an "enormous problem" ... in italy "problema" has probably a less semantic force than the english term "problem"... excuse me for my poor english ! Au revoir!
Good to see you back again!
This video was sooooo thorough. Grazie mille!
Grazie!!!! 😊
I have asked Italian speakers "What does allora mean?" and they don't seem to know how to explain it. I think you have made me realise what it means and in what context it is used. Thank you.
Bene! We are so happy about this! 😊
Grazie mille, caro Manu per le tue spiegazioni interessanti! ❤️
I have been studying Italian and travelling to Italy for a few years now and Manu I am so grateful for your posts and videos. Really helps to listen to you so I can improve fluency, comprehension and pronunciation. Grazie mille! Keep them coming!
I love it 😁😁☺️
You are the best Italian language teacher....
Thank you so much R gujjar, è un piacere per me! Un abbraccione 😊
Grazie Manu, questo video è proprio utile. Un abbraccio forte!
😘Ciao cara Joe! Hai imparato qualcosa di nuovo?
@@italymadeeasy Talmente è nuovo per me e non mi ricordo penso di sì. La lezione è buona per chiacchierare! Grazie!
😘
Wow, that clears up so much for me. Thank you!
A very useful lesson.
❤️
Glad you're ok, I was hope all is well. Was wondering if you were ok since there were no vids for awhile.
Especially because of this pandemic. Grazie per la lezione!
Grazie Colette, you're so sweet! Better late than never, eh? 😊
Grazie! Bel video!
😊
Manu! I'm glad you're back and thankful that you're ok. I tuoi video sono molto utili. Grazie!
Grazie mille 😍
What a great explanation! Grazie!
L'ha spiegato molto chiaramente! Complimenti!
😊
Manu, you are awsome! I love all of your lessons and learn so much from your simplified technique. You are by far the best Italian teacher I have found online. I do an Italian study group with some friends every week and have suggested that they all subscribe to your lessons as they are so beneficial. Sending best wishes to you. Keep safe and well,
we need you! :))
Grazie mille for your suggestion to your friends! 😍They like it?
Salve a tutti. Io imparare così tanto grazie. Sto imparare l’italiano per 3 mesi
Fantastic video
Grazie mille, David! Un abbraccio😘
New video pls i love them so much
❤️
I always think of it in groups. If it's so/therefore then "quindi". If it's so/thus then "così". If it's so/well (or basically a filler) then "allora". That may not cover all cases but based on Manu's video I'm not too far off!
thanks, that`s very interesting ♥ i guess it would be great to see more videos about different conversational phrases
😊
I learn so much from Manu! So clear. So powerful.
❤️
This was epic, Manu! I had a decent grasp of several of these usages before, but the most clarifying examples for me were the "so ... that" versus "very" meanings. Each one of your videos not only delivers knowledge and practical help but also is a testament to the richness of the language. Sono MOLTO (SO!) grata per i tuoi video solari in questi giorni grigi! Grazie assai, Manu!
Gatto Nero! Il tuo commento di supporto è sempre presente! Che bello, grazie! 😍Hai trovato qualche espressione che non avevi mai sentito prima? 😉
@@italymadeeasy Si' -- "dunque"! Viene direttamente dal latine, vero?
Complimenti, sì! Ha origini latine 😉
Sì, Manu
Perfetto!
Excellent explanation 😍👌
I have a little question: as a beginner in learning the language, when should I stop comparing it to my native language? I think we all do it in the beginning of learning new language to recognize how this language different or similar to our native one and also to make it more logical and let the grammar make more sense. But the question: is there a specific level or time which the comparison between languages can be dangerous to me so it may hinder my progress in Italian? And when should I stop doing it?
ciao Eman, you are doing a great job! Comparing Italian to your native language is useful as it helps you recognise patterns of what is similar and what is different! However, we recommend to not "translate" word by word from your language to Italian, but to try to "think" in Italian as soon as possible! 💪
Io capisco quasi tutto, grazie!
La lezione era cosi interessante che l’ho guardata molte volte 😀
Ahah quante?
Ohhh! So cute 🤗 di si ,di no 😊
😊
Brilliant video, thanks! I'm still a bit confused about which to use when I mean something like 'in order to'. For example: 'I work hard so that I can pay my bills'.
Just discovered this, amazing! Will be following more lessons. Grazie!
❤️
Thank you! Much to learn and practice here.
Thank you so much!
Bravo Manu, grazie!
😊
I have been struggling with cosi / so for a long time and this video taught me a lot. Grazie mille Manu!
We are so happy about it!😊
Hello Manu, I was looking some sites to review information about Italy -as im planning a trip there- and somehow i got to your channel, which I find it very interesting the way you approached to teach the language. I live in Canada but originally I speak Spanish; my Dad was from Italy and I have some vocabulary but not enough for a conversation. Thank you for all your hard work to put all this together. Regards.
❤️ have you ever visited our website? You'll find many interesting things! www.italymadeeasy.com
Era così bella .grazie Manu
Cosa ti è piaciuto di più, Rod? 😚
Grazie mille! Molto chiaro e molto utile!!
Conoscevi già qualche espressione, Lisa? 😊
@@italymadeeasy si, uso 'cosi' spesso e anche davvero, quindi, allora. Mi aiuta molto di capire meglio "talemente" ma anche gli altri affinche posso sentire piu' naturale.
Che bello! 😍
Liked It!!!!
Thank you for sharing this video.. Im still learning italian, living in Sicily. My main problem is i can understand italian but having a hard time saying it.. Piano piano...♥
Piano piano💪🥰
Wow your videos are comprehensive and clear and entertaining, teaching myself Italian wish I had found your channel sooner.. grazie!!
So happy that the video taught you something that you didn't know, Francine! Is there anything you would like us to talk about?😘
@@italymadeeasy the part I have a hard time with and have to continually review is pronoun use and word order .. Using “che” in sentences that in English you wouldn’t need the word.. so “che” and pronouns tricky for English speakers.. ❤️ thanks
We'll consider your suggestion, grazie! 😘
Bravo e grazie! Una domanda: "Quest'anno viaggeremo in Italia, ho iniziato a studiare con Rosetta Stone tre mesi fa" Penso di dovere usare "così" perché la clausola fa parte d'un pensiero più grande.
Ciao Jeremy! In this sentence, both "così" and "quindi" are correct! ☺️
Love this video and how you explain everything so clearly! I had to laugh at Penso di si. Why is the “di” there? Because we just need it… 😆
“Penso di sì “ and “ Penso di no”
Can be memorised for English speakers as roughly ‘I think the yes ‘ and ‘I think the no’
Yes!
groetjes uit nederland, love the vids
Ciao Manu, come si tradurrebbe "so long as" in italiano? Finche? Boh. Allora, questo video e' pieno di esempi sull'uso di so, dunque, grazie tanto. Tom
A great lesson Manu but the sub titles were distracting! Can they be turned off if we require? I have saved the lesson so I can refer back to it. Brilliant. Thank you very much.
Grazie, Manu!
Grazie a te! Ti è piaciuto il nuovo video? 😊
@@italymadeeasy si! Mi piace molto! I dont speak Italian fluently yet, will do one day! Un Giorno! 😁
Sicuramente!!! 😊
Penso di si..”can I get rid of the ‘di’? No you can not...it might make sense but it doesn’t “ 😅 I love Italian! It is so unique. 😁👍
😂
please keep uploading!

G'day
I listen to your Italian videos on you tube slot,great teaching! What is the equivalent for so in Italian in the following sentence:
After playing football for an hour or so,...
Many thanks
"Dopo aver giocato a calcio per un'ora circa, ..." 😊
@@italymadeeasy
Gratsie mile
😊
I want to tell this u look great
😍
Cia Manu, ho una domanda, per favore. In the little exercise at the end of the PDF lesson, the answers given to # 1 and # 2 are "cosi''", but I thought in both examples the statement was using "so" to mean "very" or "really", so I was surprised. I thought very and really were DAVVERO, PROPRIO and/or MOLTO? Why were the answers COSI'? Also, is that a Chicago White Sox cap? Good choice, I live in Chicago and the Sox are going to win the World Series this year! They are loaded!! Brazie mille! Bill
Ciao Bill, Thank you for your comment. "Sono stati DAVVERO sgradevoli" is a possible solution 😉 BUT please remember that in the PDF - for the first sentence, for example - you should guess among: COSÌ - DUNQUE- QUINDI - ALLORA. That's why "COSÌ" is the answer!😉 Okay? 😊
@@italymadeeasy Sorry but that's a strange answer to Bill's observation. The PDF says to use davvero, proprio or molto as intensifiers. In the video Manu goes so far as to say "don't use cosi in this situation". In the first two exercises, "so" is used as an intensifier and you tell us the correct answer is "cosi". I'd suggest that's more than a little confusing!!
Hi Russel. We are SO 😉 sorry for the confusion. Unfortunately this is one of the things that can happen when talking about expressions that can have slight variations, depending on the situation and the intonation of the sentence! In this video we have summarized the main ways of translating "so" in Italian. Manu has given instructions which, as always, also leave space to logic and to the variability of situations and contexts. In the examples we are talking about, "so" can be translated with "molto" or "davvero" or "veramente" ... but since it is an exclamation it is also possible to use "così". The exercise also serves to identify, within various possibilities, the most correct one. Here it was important to understand that the other alternative answers were absolutely incorrect!
awesome explainations!!! But question: Why isn't it La piace il gelato al ciccolata? The third person feminine direct object pronoun? I watched your LI/Lo La/Le video so I a confused by the use of the plural here?
Ciao Mary Jane! That's because "piacere" has a different constructions, which require indirect object pronouns! We created a Masterclass on this topic, if you'd like to check it out! th-cam.com/video/zG-6pA3-gHk/w-d-xo.html a presto ❤️
Ciao, Mano! Sto imparando a parlare in italiano. Sou do Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Saluti al Brasile 😊
"Penso di sì" e "penso di no" sono esattamente come diciamo "I don't think so" in olandese.. Diciamo "Ik denk van niet" che è "I think of not" in inglese.
È ovviamente: grazie per le tue lezioni. Adesso parlando italiano più meglio che un mese fa.
Progresso! 😂
😊
Bentornato!! Tutto bene?
Mi piace
