Italian for Beginners 🇮🇹 500 Essential Italian Phrases for School & Studying!

benen welcome to 500 useful phrases in Italian so we have talked about traveling we have talked about business we have talked about eating going to restaurants and we have talked about the vocabulary related to um shopping so today we're going to talk about school so the phrases for school as always I always recommend you to repeat the sentences right after me in order to practice your pronunciation of the words so we're going to explore different phrases related to school the objects in the school and um phrases that a teacher can say or the student okay so let's start the first one is I need help so here you have two options the first one is or a very common sentence could be that literally means I need a hand and that means I need help then do you need help same thing here we use the same vocabulary so or okay and this sentence can can refer also to other context than school is she here a we have already seen here that is que she is not here non I remind you that to make a negative s sentence in Italian the only thing you need to do is to place non in front of the verb good luck B Fortuna same thing here you can use this sentence in basically every context where you want to say good luck fora do you understand it I Capo I Capo I don't understand non or Capo so as we have said before you just need to place non in front of the verb you have to do your homework homework is compet and it's always plural in Italian okay have to Dei to do far I have to do my homework Dev you could have said as my comp but it's way more common to say deari comp I forgot it here you have two options so the first option um needs to be used if there is a boy talking the second option refers to g girls talking so if it was a man saying that the sentence would be if it was a woman a girl with an a at the end what did you say here you have two options but they're not related to the gender of the speaker to the sex of the speaker but they are related to who you're talking to so for example in Italy it's very common and it's actually almost mandatory to be very respectful um towards the teacher so for example from middle school until high school and University you always um use the formal way to talk to to teachers okay um so for example this sentence could be asked to a teacher but could be ask also to a classmate so if you're talking to a classmate there is no reason to be formal in that that case you would ask if this question is asked to the teacher then you would say that's the formal form of the sentence I said literally I said that I love having her in my class or I love having him in my class so let's do first I love having him in my class with at the end in my class if he was I love having her Ador a with an a at the end I think now you have understood a little bit the mechanis I think needs more help or she needs more help in this case we actually do not make any distinction because as I have already said in Italian we do not use subjects so actually the sentence doesn't change if you're talking about a man a boy or a girl okay of course if you want to specify then you would use the subject so great uh he or she never turns anything in here is the same thing so um if you don't have to use the subject then the sentence doesn't really change because the conjugation of the verb doesn't change uh of course if you want to be specific then you would use the subject so Lou for he Le for she but basically the sentence he she never turns anything in would be never my I would like to go over your grades grades V speak louder louder so maybe you have already noticed how we make the comparative form in in Italian so basically we add PE in front of the adjective PE for louder lower your voice have a good day what does something mean something something so what does mean something so in that case the object uh that you're asking a question about is after the verb okay sit down sity sity stand up the opposite Al what is the problem is it hard for you hard is it easy for you the opposite easy he or she misses classes a lot here same thing so the subject is not needed but um in that way the sent will be will become more generic of course as I have already said if you want to specify if you're talking about a girl or a boy then you add the subject Louie for he Le for she but in general the sentence would be Mrs classes in Italian is what's your English level I speak a little Italian par Italiano once again this is a sentence that you can use in every context not only in school Keep Your Hands to Yourself the hands man we have already seen the singular form of this noun Manu Manu do you want some help turn around jti please try watch your language or watch your mouth mod that would literally mean like adjust your language face front that's a very common sentence that you hear in class spit out your gum raise your head ala pretty common sentence if someone is leapy in class may I get a drink of watera water Aqua we have already seen this word before can I go to the bathroom or that's the same bathroom bring me your work bring me P me is just one word in his so here we have are you hungry as a question um we could translate this sentence into Italian but actually it's way more common to ask the question in a different way using the verb to have so do you have hunger that would be the more common sentence in Italian and that would be I same thing here are you sleepy I are you thirsty once again that's the same thing I do not forget if you're asking this question for example in a text to put the H in front of the a because that's the verb to have are you cold same thing IO so in these cases we always always use the verb to have are you hot I calo have you finished the homework I as I have already suggested comp is always plural in Italian homework don't eat in class that's a very common sentence in class class class pretty similar don't drink in class let's get started in where is your book where is where is your homework so as you might have noticed here we have and here we have doo What's the difference then so here we're talking about a book a single object here we're talking about homework but homework in Italian is plural so you need to conjugate the verb to be um according to the subject pronoun and in this case it will be they so Sono the corresponds to R in English I hope it's clear may I sharpen my pencil sharpen a pencil Ma this is the list of materials I need in class it's a long sentence in Italian I know we're going to repeat it one more time great help me understand what you want to say to understand cap we have an exam today so here we have a lot of options why did they put so many options actually it's a pretty interesting fact because exam the word exam in English in Italian can be very different according to the school you're attending for example if you are in primary school or in Middle School exam is going to be verifica if you are in High School exam will be inass if you are at the University exam is going to beam okay so we have an exam today today if you are in primary Middle School comp class if you are in high school if you are the university okay don't run don't push we have already seen the verb to push when we were talking about um shopping if you remember we often work in groups La in grou ofteno I know you can do it I will figure it out how do you feel do you have friends in this class this the word ends in a because CL is a feminine word so it needs to match the gender of the word so quest with an a at the end can I copy your homework that's not a good sentence but just in case we're going to add it to copyop and that's a very honest answer no you can't copy my homework noop it literally means no you can copy them okay because it's not that common that someone would say no you can copy my homework no that's way too long when we can shorten things in Italian we do it is the exam difficult so here you have once again the three options if you remember um the three options for the word exam so or is difficult answer very easy when when does school start qu we would rather say when do the lesson start when does class finish what time is the class class starts at 3 3 three the class ends at 6 ends 6 how long is the class how long is Quant the class lasts 2 hours 2 hours the class is fun fun the class is boring the opposite NOA with an a at the end because is a feminine word the class is interesting never change whether it refers to a masculine or feminine word remember to do the best you can a motivational sentence the teacher is nice here you have two options because maybe the teacher is a woman or a man if it's a man you're going to say if it's a woman is always whether it refers to masculine or feminine words here you have the difference for example the teacher is mean so once again if the teacher is a man if we're talking about a woman raise your hand if you have a question it literally means raise your hand if you have some questions very good silence please great repeat what I say repeat and here we are referring to a group of people for example a group of students in a class what I say do you understand the rules the rules wait your turn perfect don't run in the hole that's a very common sentence in Italian schools the whole is do you know the answer here you have to option because maybe the teacher is talking to just one student or maybe uh she is asking or he is asking to do the same question to the to the entire class so in the first case so if the teacher is talking to just one student then the teacher will say SAA if he or she is talking to the class the answer my favorite subject is math subject Materia math Mathematica my favorite subject is English English Eng as you might have noticed in Italia we do not Place adjectives in front of the noun but right after it my favorite subject is PE my least favorite class is language and literat so we're getting closer to the end of this lesson my least favorite class is history stor history my least favorite class is art what do you want to study at the University so in Italian we would say what do you want to do at the University I'm going to study graphic design far graphic design so you can keep the English words but you can also use this alen version far gra I study Italian studioo you study it study Informatica I have good grades or they B V we have already seen that grade is VTO and this is his plural grades VY and here we have the opposite you have bad grades i v in literally means in Italian you have ugly grades we actually use ugly I failed the exam here once again we have the two options okay referring to the word exam in English I failed I didn't pass Compu in class Oram if you at the University I passed the exam that's good news okay and here's our last sentence I haven't studied for the exam tomorrow so no I haven't studied for the or tomorrow okay great congratulations
