Hi everybody, my name's Mike and this is the Let's Speak Italian podcast. So you've been listening to the first few lessons, and hopefully you're learning how to speak Italian.
Well with the first 100 lessons completed, I wanted to release the first few lessons for free as a little teaser so that you can see just how easy it is to learn to speak Italian. Now, by going to the website, you can buy the first 100 lessons for only $15.00. That includes 100 lessons, plus 20 review lessons as well, for a total of 120 lessons in all. That's 24 weeks of lessons, for only $15.00. It's over 13 hours of Italian lessons, for the price of what you might pay for one music CD.
I've found that the key to learning to speak Italian is to learn a little bit every day, and to practice it with your friends. So get lessons 1-100, and listen to one lesson, every day for 24 weeks. By the end, you'll be amazed at how easy it was, and just how much you can learn by practicing a few minutes every day.

scrivere = to write leggere = to read credere = to believe vedere = to see Then to conjugate these infinitives, you will drop the 'ere' and add the following endings: io = add 'o' tu = add 'i' Lei/lui/lei = add 'e' noi = add 'iamo' voi = add 'ete' loro = add 'ono' So to conjugate the verb 'scrivere': io scrivo tu scrivi Lei/lui/lei scrive noi scriviamo voi scrivete loro scrivono Noi leggiamo il discorso. = We read the speech. Io leggo il giornale. = I read the newspaper. Susana vede la casa. = Susana saw the house. Loro credono la lezione = They believed the lesson. |

Lui mangia la pizza. = He eats the pizza. Noi mangiamo la pasta. = We eat the pasta. Loro mangiano gli spaghetti. = They eat the spaghetti. Io studio il libro. = I study the book. Lei studia l'italiano. = She studies Italian. Antonio ama Claudia. = Antonio loves Claudia. Gli amici giocano il calcio. = The friends play soccer. To ask a question in Italian, you just say the sentence with a questioning inflection at the end of the sentence. Tu parli l'italiano. = You speak Italian Tu parli l'italiano? = Do you speak Italian? Another short cut you can do in Italian, is you can drop the pronoun entirely because the verb changes for every pronoun. For example, you can say Io compro il pane. = I buy the bread Or you can drop the 'io' and just say Compro il pane. = I buy the bread. Because the word 'compro' is only used with 'io,' you can drop the 'io' and it is apparent that you mean 'I buy.' |
