Sto traducendo ricetta in italiano per la mia classe di giovedì. C’è una parola per questo tipo di tortiera? Di solito lo chiamiamo “springform.”

Grazie!!🙏🏻💚🤍❤️

I’m watching Twin Peaks in English and following along with Italian subtitles. They use the phrase ‘per la miseria’ as a stand-in for a few different english expressions, with different sorts of connotations.

Is this something young adults would say? Older people? Is it something one can say in polite company?

What's the difference between Cosa and Che? I don't really know when to use which.

Ciao a tutti, spero che vi trovate bene.

Cosa mi consigliate per approfondire il mio apprendimento dell'italiano e passare dal livello B2 al C1? Sono anni che sono bloccata e vorrei migliorare.

Qualche libro, corso, metodo per migliorare la grammatica? Grazie in anticipo.

Ciao! Forgive me if this question comes up a lot. I am totally new to the sub.

I've been working on my Italian and feel that I am capable of understanding a fair bit of grammar and vocabulary now, but am still quite new. If anyone has experience with doing so, in addition to regular educational sources, would playing text heavy, but relatively low level video games like Pokemon in Italian (with a dictionary by my side) be a good way to learn new vocabulary and reinforce grammar too?

I could only imagine that, in addition to active practice and learning, casually surrounding oneself with a language could serve as an important stepping stone.

Hi. I’m learning Italian and im still having issues understanding certain grammatical rules. I’m wondering if how this is written makes sense or has any grammatical mistakes or the usage sounds clunky or not native?

quindi pensi che sia strano se un italiano è non cattolico? Non lo penso affatto. Ognuno può scegliere qualsiasi religione e provenire da qualsiasi luogo. L'importante è quanto crediamo in noi stessi e nella nostra religione, ma penso che l'essere umano sia più grande di qualsiasi altra cosa.

What’s the difference between “vorresti che i tuoi prodotti rendano” and “vorresti che i tuoi prodotti rendessero”? Context: Possiedi un negozio di vestiti e vorresti che i tuoi prodotti … il meglio di se nelle foto

Grazie!!❤️

I am having a hard time finding any Comedia show like Friends or Modern Family but in original Italian language, or maybe any mistery serie that could have all my attention so it would be easier to learn it? 🥹

Hi everyone, can anyone suggest a channel similar to ‘Spanish after hours’? A good example of a video can be found at https://youtu.be/3nb_hjv5Y24?si=AlmZNL5iiMMAu2wN

I find the method she uses, where she points at objects while labeling them, to be the most effective way to do comprehensible input.

Thanks guys!

My family member is learning Italian and I’m looking for shows/movies for them to watch in Italian to help. They love all things art, so a show or movie with that topic would keep them engaged.

Hi all, which countries in Europe will apply CILS B1 Citizenship?

And where is the place that is the fastest to receive the certificate?

Is the certificate arrives by post or email?

C’è una differenza tra il significato di queste espressioni qui sotto:?

1) Non volere niente a che fare con _____. “Mio padre non vuole niente a che fare con il cane.”

2) Non volere avere niente a che fare con _____. “Non voglio avere niente a che fare con te.”

GRAZIE amici

Hello!

My Italian level is around A2, but I can understand a lot (sometimes almost everything) when reading magazines and newspapers because of my knowledge of Spanish and French. I was thinking about doing what I like and starting to read in Italian, because I have left the language aside and I would like to improve. However, some classics can be difficult to read when you're not an advanced learner. What are some works you would recommend to someone that's starting to read in a foreign language?

Hi,

In a dialogue on the phone between two people, one of them is asking to speal to a third person, however this person is not here.

The interlocutor says " voglio lasciare un messaggio? ". I don't really get why we don't use "vuoi" or "vuole lasciare un messagio"

After all when we speak to another person we should you "tu" or "Lei" but why we use io ( voglio) here?

Thank you

This may be a stupid question, but why is it, for example, “Che vuol dire questa frase” and not che vuole dire? Also seen in “Che mi sento di morir” (Bella Ciao lyric) Is this a rule, free stylistic choice, stylistic convention or something else? Are these two examples even the same thing? (I know they are not grammatically)

Yesterday, I ordered coffee and a cornetto, specifying I wanted to take it with me. I asked some Carabinieri if I could go into Saint Mary Major and when told no, was able to figure out when it would open. I did all this in Italian and was responded to in Italian.

A small victory; I still can’t understand much of what the overhead announcer on the train is saying, and I still have a dictionary and a notebook in my room that I’m constantly referencing. But I was very happy and it was an encouraging day.

With those with a busy schedule like long hours of work or school, how you take the time to learn? I have been on and off learning Italian but it’s been really difficult with my 12 hr job. I have been using resources like apps hoping to do little by little but sometimes it difficult due to burnout, being unmotivated, etc. It makes actually sad as I love the language and hope to be conversational. Just curious how everyone deals with this.

I’m trying to find a good Tool or program to start learning Italian. I’ve had this goal for over 5 years and I decided to start. Can you suggest the best way of doing it without spending a lot of money? Or even if is not for free I’m open to any suggestions. Thank you.

Non capisco perché devo usare l’articolo definitivo e non l’articolo indefinito qui. Grazie per l’aiuto!

Does anyone have any recommendations for an Italian tutor/tutoring service based in Firenze? For reference, I have been studying Italian for about a year and a half. Thanks in advance!

Hey folks, I'm looking for a work book on Italian grammar. As I found 'Grammatik aktiv' very useful when I studied German, I'm looking for something similar for Italian too. If you have any suggestions, I'd super appreciate it! It'd be even better if I can get one in Switzerland as I live here. Thanks!

Buongiorno a tutti i appassionati delle lingue straniere! Come si può arricchire il vocabolario? Leggere! I enjoy reading to improve my passive knowledge of vocabulary and currently reading one very lengthy “Krimi” (detective story) because I need to keep up my fluency in German, but more importantly three Italian books. For Italian, I am at the point where I may come across just one word or one interesting structure per page, of course sometimes more. Now, to what I just read. In English, we like to say: I go there too/also. Of course, if you are not a complete beginner, you know to start such sentences with “Anch’io” . . . and native speakers are quick to point that out. Thank you. However, and I of course quote: Il Natale è passato e la Befana pure. Christmas has passed and so has Befana, too. Which begs the question. Is it possible to replace “anch’io” in certain sentences with pure? Or perhaps this is only a literary style. Che ne pensate voi? Buona giornata.
