  • nice video amazing

  • @MetalHeart8787 ive always disliked male & Female speech

    dont' worry you have to be patient and little by little you will learn it. Anyway normally we italians are aware about the difficulty of italian language and often we tend to be helpful as well with foreigners to speak a correct grammar.

    You should to pay attenction also to the accent cause some word with another accent changes the meaning:

    example

    la pesca with closed "e" is the fishing

    la pesca with opened "e" is the peach.

    ciao

  • @milly8389

    Thank for the explanation But i didn't even know you responded to me, YT sometimes doesn't

    notifie every comment, thats why i said "PM" me I understand but ive always disliked

    "male & Female speech" If the word is House OR Boat both should say it.

  • @MetalHeart8787 btw where did you study italian? i know many americans are using the computer programs to learn italian probably cause there are not many courses. Nut I think it's wrong. The grammar is hard huge and complicated so to learn a language (also english ) and above all italian (as french or spanish too) it' s necessary a real teacher possibly mother tongue or someone who knows perfecly italian language as grammar and pronounce too.

    A computer is not right.

  • @MetalHeart8787 for example also the using of the plural. In english it' s sufficient to add the S at the end of the word. But in Italian there is difference if the word is male or female and you have to know the nature of the word before to create the plural.

    example:

    the dog=the dogS

    italian: il cane(male)=I cani

    the house=the houseS

    italian: la casa(femal)= le case

    also the articles (determinative and indeterminative) depend on the nature of the word by male to female.

  • @MetalHeart8787 but the verbal structure of "so that I do" is not the same of "che io faccia" cause "faccia" is not present indicative but congiuntive instead "I do" is present indicative in italian and we can't use it in that case. So the tranlation is similar but not the same.

    Congiuntivi verbal time doesnt' exist in english.

    And this is only an example.

    In italian there are many other rules as well.

  • @MetalHeart8787 excuse but what you said let me think you dont' know well the structure of latin nor italian if you don't know what it is the verbal time of congiuntivi.

    Congiuntivi is one of the most difficult verbal time to use. It's difficult even to us italians.

    exemple:

    verb to do (fare)

    indicative present:

    io faccio (I do)

    congiuntive:

    che io faccia

    the congiuntive it doesnt' exist in english but it' s important in italian.

    the meaning of che io faccia in englihs could be: so that I do.

  • @milly8389 actually i think Latin is easy.

    I know Italian is the main Language. & latin is an old Language.

    yeah grammer im not wild about I just try to learn alot of phrases.

    congiutivi? NO what is it? PM me

  • @MetalHeart8787 it's not impossible to learn italian ok but it's hard to learn it WELL.

    this is the difference. Italian language derives directly by latin and latin is very hard. All the grammar rules can to creat really confusion. There are many irregular verbs verbal times and many different constructions. Have you ever heared about congiuntivi for example?
