‘La grammatica ascoltata’ A1-4 Essere o avere?

September 22, 2014 by Daniel

Here’s the fourth in our series of ‘Italian grammar listenings’, today Essere or Avere?

If you’re new to the series, or to our website, the ‘La grammatica ascoltata’ texts are not intended to be grammar exercises or explanations (you’ll find those elsewhere on OnlineItalianClub.com).

Instead the idea is to provide you with examples of Italian grammar in context, which you can listen to  / read as often as you like, and which will hopefully allow you to better recognize the structures used.

So today, ‘to be’ or ‘to have’. Click here to listen / read.

Watch out for some of the differences between the Italian and English uses of these verbs – they do tend to catch people out!

You’ll find the first three in this series here.

P.S.

Did you know we have e-books suitable for beginners in our online shop?

If you’re just starting out with Italian, we recommend

  • Italian Workout! A1 (grammar, vocabulary & exercises at beginner/elementary level)
  • Il ristorante (a simplified audio-book, especially written to get beginners started reading and listening to Italian)

Download a sample chapter of any of our e-books so you can check that the level is right for you. You’ll find the ‘sample chapter download’ link in the description for each book. Just click on the product image in the shop.
