Many thanks to Mary, Maria, Jean, Marcia and Nina who wrote to me on Monday to tell me that the instructions for this exercise were wrong. I’ve amended the rubric along the lines they suggested: conjugate the verb, use the subjunctive if necessary. And so to today, and to our new Italian easy-reader e-book, ‘L’appuntamento‘. Stefano and Chiara have […]
Start The Week Off Right With 2 Subjunctive Exercises!
Today we’ve having fun with the subjunctive! The first exercise is a gapfill, where you’re supposed to conjugate the verb in the appropriate form of the subjunctive. If you’re feeling lazy, use the ‘Soluzioni’ button to view the answers first. Read the sentences through and try and figure them out. When you’ve understood as much […]
Greetings From The Edge Of The Internet
I’m on holiday in Cornwall, England, which it’s rather trying as the Internet connection is intermittent at best. Part of yesterday afternoon was spent on the broadband helpline with a very nice guy in Kolkata, India. It’s monsoon season there. The rest of the afternoon saw me standing beside one of the local pubs (they […]
‘Che’, ‘Chi’, ‘Cui’… You’re Shitting Me, Right?
Sorry, couldn’t resist trying out my street slang in that title. Guess I’ve been watching too much Netflix… Anway, today we have some more ‘bits and pieces’ exercises that still need to be integrated with our Italian Lessons series. I’m tidying them up, grouping them, trying to figure out where they will eventually end up on […]

But first, three exercises from my ‘bits and pieces’ pile, those which still need to be integrated with our Italian Lessons series. To my surprise it seems we don’t […]
Sixteen Useful Italian Adverbs For You
Matching exercises aren’t my favorite, if for no other reason than that our code always makes the pages look awful. I prefer the dropdown menu ones. Hate gapfills! Maybe it’s because I’m lazy. But today’s two exercises, each of which requires you to match an adverb to its definition, are a prompt to study or […]
