New A1 exercise: essere or avere with the passato prossimo?

January 21, 2015 by Daniel

Here’s the third in our new series of A1 (beginner/elementary) Italian grammar exercises.

Today we have a useful one on whether to use the auxiliary verb ‘avere’ or ‘essere’ when forming a past tense.

If you know any French, that’s a start, because Italian is very similar in this respect.

Go here to try today’s exercise:

Passato prossimo, essere o avere?

P.S.

Don’t forget to snap up your copy of our latest simplified Italian reader/audio-book, which is available this week only at a special launch price!

It’s the story of a classic Italian comedy, ‘Divorzio all’Italiana‘, as retold by our online Italian teacher, script writer, and all-round movie expert, Giovanni Galavotti.

The level is B1 – Intermediate, so it’s suitable for those of you who already have some confidence reading in and listening to Italian.

Or for anyone at a lower level who plans to get to B1/intermediate soon…

Download your copy of ‘Divorzio all’Italiana’ at the special launch price.

The launch offer ends at midnight on Sunday.
