BON GIORNO, CARI AMICHI!

We proceed to the fourth lesson, during which we will deepen our knowledge of the Italian language in every possible way!

Time

This time talk about time. Most common The words characterizing this category are: YESTERDAY, TODAY, TOMORROW and NOW.

  • Ieri - YESTERDAY, Jeri reads
  • Oggi - TODAY, read "Oji"
  • DOMANI - TOMORROW, read "Domani"
  • Addo - NOW, NOW, AT THIS MOMENT, read "Adesso"

Example:

  • IERI HO LAVORATO, OGGI NON LAVORO - YESTERDAY I WORKED, AND TODAY I DO NOT WORK

Numerals

The NUMBER ONE happens to be male and female, all other numerals go in anonymous form.

  • Uno - ONE ("Uno")
  • UNA - ONE ("Una")

With such a set of numerals, the traveler will be able to find out what time it is.

  • CHE ORA Ѐ? - WHAT TIME IS IT NOW? ("Ke Ora E")

Noun Ora ends on BUT, which is a sign of the feminine, therefore, in the plural, it will look like: Ore-CLOCK. To answer the question "What time is it?" Italians use a pronoun Sono - THEY and the article LEpeculiar to the feminine plural.

Example:

  • SONO LE DUE - NOW TWO HOURS ("Sono Le Douet")
  • Ѐ LA UNA (L'UNA) - NOW ONE HOUR ("E Moon")
  • LA - The singular feminine.
  • ALLE DUE - TWO HOURS
  • CHE COSA TU FAI OGGI ALLE 5? - WHAT DO YOU DO TODAY AT 5?

If you need to ask time more accurately, use the word MEZZO - HALF, read Mezzo.

Example:

  • DOMANI ALLE 12 NOI IMPARIAMO L'ITALIANO - TOMORROW AT 12 WE WILL STUDY ITALIAN.
  • IERI SERA ALLE NOVE IO HO MANFIATO CON MIO AMICO - YESTERDAY EVENING I ATTEND TOGETHER WITH MY FRIEND

Recall the formation of the past tense in verbs of the correct form. If the present tense ends in -ARE (PARLARE), then the elapsed time is formed by adding the ending to the root -ATO (PARLATO). If the verb ends with -ERE (VENDERE), then in the past tense it will look like: root plus ending -UTO (VENDUTO). Verbs whose indefinite form ends in -IRE (DORMIRE) past tense end on -ITO (DORMITO).
