I love japanese of ocurse, always will.
But, im really tired of my education in french. I thought, instead of getting a crappy education in french, why not get a crappy education in italian! it sounds nice (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3BiIJQr7vM) its much more interesting than french (and the opening in italian is tons better than the french one)
BUT! my school only offers grade 11 italian. -_-'
So, i have to learn a bunch my self and then take a grammar test. Anyone know italian? anyone learning italian?
i thought maybe we oculd help each other out
(I was considering swedish but i cant pronounce it) |

sure tell me if u like my lesson and I'll make others ^^
and let me know if u want to know something in particular...
Lesson # 1
• pronomi personali
I -> io
you -> tu
he -> lui (egli)
she -> lei
it -> esso
we -> noi
you (pl) -> voi
they -> essi
Verbs -present-
_____________essere (to be) and avere (to have) are the principal irregular verbs...
• to be - essere
io sono (I am)
tu sei (you are)
egli è (he is)
noi siamo (we are)
voi siete (you are)
essi sono (essi sono)
• to have - avere
io ho ( I have)
tu hai (you have)
egli ha (he has)
noi abbiamo (we have)
voi avete (you have)
essi hanno (they have)
(note: the "h" has no pronunciation when it's the first letter of the word)
the other verbs are easier...
we have 3 conjugations: -are, -ere and -ire (ex: giocare (to play), vedere (to see), venire (to come).
• -are conjugation
amare (to love)
io amo
tu ami
egli ama
noi amiamo
voi amate
essi amano
the other verbs of 1st conjugation (-are) go in the same way...
(ex: guardare [to look] is: io guardo, tu guardi, egli guarda, noi guardiamo, voi guardate, essi guardano)
Vocabulary:
amare - to love
odiare - to hate
mangiare - to eat
bere - to drink
amico - friend
