Want to learn to speak even more Italian the fast, fun and easy way?
Here we are today with the top 25 Italian verbs.
To be, to be or not to be one.
Essere is just a plain form that we're going to change for every person that we use.
In my case, I can say Io sono desiré.
Avere means to have, but be careful because in Italian, it's not the same as in English.
So for example, to say I'm 20 years old, you don't say essere, so you don't use to
I'm 20 years old, but you say I'm 20 years old.
Basically fare, it's a general verb, like you can use it with a lot of things
We have the specific verbs, but if you go with fare, it's safe.
A cake, a discussion, everything is a meal.
About dire, there's a funny phrase that we use or maybe our grandmothers, anyway
It goes like this: "Trail dire e il fare c'è di mezzo il mare".
So the meaning is it's not so easy to go from saying
to doing things.
Potere means can and it's really useful because you can use it to ask permission.
So can I use the bathroom?
The article before that is il potere means the power.
Can you pass me the sugar please?
I like sweet things.
Volere means want, but it's kind of a strong way of saying things.
There's a famous phrase with volere that is volere
It means that if you really want to do something, you can do it, you can manage.

When you're wrong and you tell people that you know you're wrong,
So if you're in Italy and you're late and it always happens to me
At least you can say I know, I know, I know I'm late.
And that will calm things down like people will be like okay, okay, ti aspetto.
But anyway, for us, it's kind of normal to be late so don't worry too much
If you're late.
You can use it with a location or with a condition.
I'm not going to be home tonight, but I'm going to stay home.
So if people ask you, hey, how are you?
Also you can use that to say that you're doing something,

That's right now.
So if you have to work or if you have to do homework and people ask you
I'm going to go to the gym and I'm going to go to the gym.
I have to study, I have to work.
Be careful because we don't use prendere for example
We don't take a shower, but we do a shower.
Vedere means to see and it's something that you can see, that you can spot.
But you can also use it as a meeting like what are you doing tonight?
I'm seeing my mother, Vedo mia mamma, which means I'm going to meet her, probably have a date with her.
I'm going to dinner with you, but it's something I've already planned.
