Next time you come back to Rome, you can register, in 3 easy steps, in your own language and with an encrypted connection to send your personal data and payments. We just published it in 5 different languages to begin. I guess you guys know how much work we really put in it once you have visited the link below. Furthermore, it was so much much fun to develop it with the guys at Hypercube! So go check it out… and please tell me what you like or dislike… I’m open to all suggestions!

e-Enrollment Application for Torre di Babele’s Italian Courses

Now…! Back to the real topic of this blogpost: Situational Italian. There’s is no better way to learn that by understanding situations. Alvise, acts pretty well on this one. I think you guys (and girls, to be politically correct) will  enjoy his acting skills and agree with me. Pretty good, isn’t he? Well more on that on the comments sections. You can judge this video lesson as much as you want down there.

The conjugation of the verbs with ending in IRE is quite difficult in Italian. At least it was for me at the beginning of my learning curve. There’s so much I’ve learned from different languages, and most of the time I use similarities among languages to learn faster, but I couldn’t find any for this part of the Italian language.

So with no further a due, here it is… Alvise teaching you to conjugate the verbs in IRE in the present tense. I know this is not advance material as some of you have requested, but we need to learn to crawl before we walk. So to all newbies in the Italian language, squeeze all the knowledge you can out of this one. Repeat it as much as you want! It’s free, ain’t it?

Regards from the Eternal city…. by the way.. spring had a great start in Rome… I bet this summer is going to be amazing! I honestly wish I will have some free time to enjoy Rome in its greatest season: SUMMER TIME!!! L’ESTATE ROMANA
