Awesome video! Great teacher!!!! Who gives this guy a thumbs down? Really? Great content. Great enthusiasm. Free for you to learn. Amazing how anyone would not give this 5 stars and ask for more.
Grazie mille Joe! I appreciate you!
Hi, where did you learn Italian? You speak better than a lot of Italian mother tongue! I like so much your lessons.
Thank you so much! I'm Russian and learn Italian language, and sometimes it's hard to understand such kind of video in English, but you explain so clear, then I get 100% of information.
And it's pleasure to see your gorgeous smile)
Carry on!
He does have perfect teeth (I say enviously)
Your voice is so soothing, signore. Honest to God, I could fall asleep to it.
Love all your videos! Very helpful. Also diggin' the fireflies in the background of this one. 😀
hey man, just want to say I love your videos... I'm currently doing full immersion learning in Rome and when I don't quite grasp what I've learnt in class then your stuff really clears it up for me!
I feel like your videos outdoor are much better then the indoor ones, you look in better mood outside, in any case keep the great videos you fare....
I have to say, you are the best Italian teacher I have come across, I really love your videos and learn so much from them! I've sat through many classes of Italian and have never learnt so much, nor so clearly before. You're videos are really great and please keep them up!
Thank you very much Hayley! That's very nice of you to say :)
You deserve at least 200k sucribers, I can see how happy you are while teaching, good job !
Great job bro, you are one of the best in RUclips, God bless you
Great job buddy, I'm an Egyptian learning italian, having a hard time with english but guess what...ho capito completamente tutto quello che hai detto :D
good video tom :) & i was wondering if there are any Italian podcasts you would recommend?
so non mi chiami ma tom non risposta - Coffee Break Italian e' un buon podcast per imparare d'italiano
@@guitarnoobodst yay i got a suggestion 4 years later haha, thank!
I realize I am kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good website to stream new tv shows online?
@Gavin Gibson flixportal :P
@Elliott Josiah Thanks, I signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D Appreciate it!!
You are really clear in your explanation. Congratulation and thank you very much.
My first language was Italian, and though I still clearly understand Italian, my spoken Italian is getting rusty, I moved out of Italy when I was little and now I live in Sri Lanka, I wish I knew more Italians to speak Italian with quotidianamente hehe
I tuoi video, mi aiutano molto nel rinfrescare la memoria. Stai facendo benissimo! Grazie Tom.
Great lesson really enjoying the way you teach, thank from down under, regards Susan
First time I’ve seen this and fantastic for an Italian newbie! Grazie Mille!
very clear and useful !
Hi sir during learning Italian process first time I am watching your channel your efforts are great and superb whole vedios are very useful for me bundles of thanks and please continue..... I am watching and waiting for your new vedios
L'ho trovato tua canale recentamente. Mi piace molto tuoi video corsi!! Grazie
I love your videos I believe this is going to help me alot because I have been studying Italian for 8months now and i can't speak the lady that is teaching us dnt speak English and the class is very bored but thank you for this because this is going to help me alot.
I found you because of Tia Taylor and I'm about to cry of happiness because you're amazing😭😭
LOVE your videos. I'm going to italy in may and your videos are a wonderful supplement to my italian class. It helps to think about it in Spanish, too. When you're using it to replace places, Ci is kind of like the word "alli" in spanish.
Tom i want to thank you im extremely eager to start connecting the words and sentences that i have learnt , you should have a lot more support your content and attitude is unbelievable:)
Grazie mille Max!
Thank you for your great explanation!
Tom you are stupendo thank you! You actually manage to make grammar seem fun...Grazie
I love your video lessons, Tom! I'm learning Italian with Rosetta Stone, and sometimes have no idea how some of their sentences are formed or what they are trying to say. Since there are no explanations on Rosetta Stone, I visit your videos often and end up learning a lot more! Thank you! Subscribed!
Grazie mille Andrew! I'm happy to hear my videos are able to help! Keep up the great work with your Italian!
He corrects himself after saying the English 'There's a lot of people here', but that actually is correct since in American English a 'lot' is considered a singular noun even though it represents something that is comprised of multiple things. It is similar to a 'company' which in the U.S. is considered a singular noun, not a plural. So we say 'the company is doing well' and not 'the company are doing well' which I often see from my English (UK) or Australian colleagues.
Thanks a lot I love to hear ❤️ Italian language
great video. CI is awesome. NE is the bad one hahaha
Ne sono convinto. ;)
d'accordo
I am tanzanian have you been toTanzania
luckily for the francophones, ne = en in french, ci = y in french
Omg yesss😩
I love your positive vibes❤❤❤
Grazie mille Tom! Contenta che si Sta di nuovo facendo videos italiani!
I love you videos! I've been using them to study for the last year. I just got back from Italy last week and everyone was really impressed with how much my Italian had improved! Do you have videos explaining how to use "ne" and "cio"? I'm still really confused about those.
+Devin Cole Thanks Devin! I'll look into doing a video on cio. I've already done one on Ne, you can find it on my channel or in my Learn Italian playlist :)
My tutor talked about "ci" in my last lesson and also included using it as a substitute when "a," "in," "con," and "su" are involved. She also talked about "ci" when "avere" is involved as well. This is the first video of yours I've seen so I don't know if you have since covered these in later videos.
I think I’m already to the upgrade of a beginner to an intermediate! And I’ve only seen a few of your videos, for two only weeks
That's great!!
Thanks dude, i liked it! you explains it in an simple way and quite useful.
Thanks again and Regards from Brazil.
Great video thank you man ! I have italian test tomorrow (Bac) and u help well with you're video continueee
Good explanation.
Ciao Tom, bellissimo video come sempre! :)
Probabilmente lo sai già, ma spesso noi italiani usiamo la particella ci anche davanti al verbo "avere", per esempio "c'ho fame" (pronunciato ció), "c'ho sete", "non c'ho soldi" ecc ecc... ti assicuro che è davvero usatissimo nella lingua parlata dal nord al sud! 😂 nello scritto si vede molto raramente invece.
È solo un piccolo consiglio per tutti quelli che vogliono parlare come un perfetto madrelingua, anche se non penso venga insegnato da nessuna parte perché effettivamente è scorretto dal punto di vista grammaticale 😅
Btw keep it up Tom, great job!! 💪🏻
Sì, ma non è italiano corretto 😅
Sìsì assolutamente, lo riconosco :) Ma a mio parere penso che sia divertente ogni tanto fare gli "errori" dei madrelingua ahah ad esempio in inglese spesso si sente dire "how you doing?" anche se sbagliato perché non c'è l'ausiliare are :)
Certo, ma è un po' diverso perché quella è una contrazione (di una forma corretta) molto usata nel linguaggio parlato informale, mentre "c´ho" è già sbagliata nella versione estesa "ci ho", quindi nessuno vorrebbe sentirla o insegnarla ;)
Invece io segnalerei a Tom un'inessattezza nel modo di dire le ore, poiché non è sempre vero che noi usiamo solo il formato 24 ore (nel parlato spesso diciamo l`1..le 6..le 8... anche se è di pomeriggio-sera). :)
Sì Mary non fraintendermi, è difficile trovare l'esatto equivalente di un'abitudine linguistica (mi piace chiamarla così) in un'altra lingua :) Era solo per dire che pur essendo sbagliato ormai si sente dire "c'ho" ovunque, in radio, tv, film... ahah è normale che nessuno lo insegni, ma sarei curiosa di sapere se Tom o qualche altra persona che stia studiando l'italiano ci abbia mai fatto caso :)
Ecco magari in questo senso, per aiutare uno straniero a capire le persone che utilizzano questa forma, ma siccome suggerivi di consigliarlo a chi vuole parlare come un perfetto madrelingua... non credo che i perfetti madrelingua usino questa forma neanche per sbaglio xD Senza offesa per chi la usa ovviamente ma secondo me è un'espressione di origine dialettiale, un 'travaso' del dialetto nell'italiano. ^.^
Grazie Tom😘 .... m totally confused with this 'Ci'....but now my mind is so clear about tht 😎 credit goes to u 😍
Excellent explain
Ciao Tom! I'm Italian and I really enjoy watching your videos!
Let me ask you a question. As I suppose your main target are americans who are learning Italian, knowing that so many Italians are following you, how does it make you feel?
Your wrong...am from Africa Kenya..thats'RUclips power for you.
Hello. Thank you very much . How can I arrange with some private lessons ? many thanks
grazie Tom e complimenti come sempre; i tuoi video sono molto utili anche per imparare l'inglese!
Thanks for the clear explanation. In English, though, we don't say "I want to come there" we say "I want to go there". Is it flexible in Italian?
Great video. i am in Italy now and struggling with when to use essere and when to use stare. Especially in the passato prossimo. Do you have a video for this???
Come insegnante sei davvero efficace...congratulazioni
Totally unrelated but idk if he's purposely tried to lose his NY accent but its nowhere near as thick as it was when he started
I'm italian and don't know exactly how did I came here, but I'm still watching your videos only to understand how much difficult could be to learn Italian from the perspective of a "other-mother- language". Maybe only Spanish and French could be in advantage on learning italian, because of some similarities in the grammar and in sentence construction. I realized we speak a language as beautful as totally fu***d up ;>
Sir a humble request for you to make a video on 'Sia' in which you completely explain the uses of this word. Thanks.
love your lessons! Thank you
Love you tom. You are really passionate
Grazie mille Tom. It's funny how today I said I need to learn how to use "ci" more and you made a video about it. Adesso devi fare un video di come usare "ne". Perche è troppo difficile. E mi piace moltissimo il tuo nome nuovo.
+xPrestigiousMusic Grazie mille! You'll be happy to know I made a video on Ne! :) ruclips.net/video/iXNLPijXwas/видео.html
You are a really good teacher. Grazie.
Excellent lesson, but a question.. Would "la' voglio venire?" be the same as "ci voglio venire?" Grazie.
Grazie! You'd have to say "voglio venire là" with là at the end of the sentence, but yes it would be the same!
@ Ahhh, capisco! Grazie!
you are great teacher. bravooo
Nice!! I'm brazilian and my english isn't perfect, but your video helped so much...grazie mille!!
Grazie Tom!
Grazie mille! Avevo tanto bisogno di questo video!!
I will add though that I am pretty sure the 3rd form of "ci" is a "locative pronoun" in English, as it replaces a prepositional phrase (e.g. to the party, to that country, about that thing)
Thank you again so much for uploading such clear and succinct videos that are great for learning and remembering! I subscribed immediately :D
Thank you very useful.
finally i understand what is it and how to use it thank you!!
Is ci only used with reflexive plural or can u use it with.. Can you bring me the book??
This really helped- thank you! 😊
grazie mille, explaining in English makes this so much easier
Another tip for teaching a foreign language is knowing that not many people will understand, "Take the future tense past participle with the noun - adjective's subjunctive verb and, etc..." If you can limit this, then it's better for learning a second language. Simply because it jumbles up people's minds and they start feeling like they're learning 2 languages at the same time.
Dunno if someone already did it but I think it is worth mentioning that "there are a lot" isn't correct. The object of "are" is "a lot" (sing.) not the noun following it, so "there is a lot of people" is the way to go.
Weila' Tom mi piace tantissimo! Grazie dei tuoi video Tom!
+Salvatore Celestino Grazie!! :)
Weilà Tom hai una faccia italiana
Bellissimo video come sempre! "Ci provi!" has always baffled me as an interesting translation for "I try!" That one will always confuse me...
Tom! you forgot to mention "ci" with specific verbs, such as "volerci" or when we use "ci" with verbs such as "provare" and "mettere" like "ci metto un'ora" for example
I like ur teaching
Tom ho una gentile richiesta per te.
Ogni volta che vedo slang del tipo Wanna,Gonna,Gotta (forse anche outta boh non ricordo) cosa vogliono dire precisamente? Grazie mille Sei un grande perché parli benissimo l'italiano. Io nella mia vita voglio trasferirmi negli USA e saper parlare come voi anche nello slang.
Leonardo Saraniti ciao, non so se possa essere ancora utile, ma questo può aiutarti www.newyorkesi.it/2012/lo-slang-e-i-modi-di-dire/
Grazie mille per il tuo video
A textbook I am using translates "Ci vediamo alle sei e dieci" as "See you at 6:10". Why doesn't this translate to "See ourselves at 6:10"? Thanks
Ciao Mike! Literally that’s what it means, but “ci vediamo” is just the Italian way of the English “see you” as in “see you soon/then/later” things like that 😊
Thank you very much
Ahh Tom. You make so much sense!
sir i have a question that reflexive verbs are only used in present tense. for example. we waked up at 10am. noi svelgliato o ci svegliato?
i dont know my example is appropriate for my question i have asked but i hope you have a general idea of what im asking.
and i really love you and your video. :*
patrick john we waked up at 7 would be "noi ci siamo svegliati alle 7", using the Passato prossimo (simple past) of the verb Svegliarsi
Great video!
Can you do a video on negation. Like non ne o ne, non.. ancora
Your eyebrows are perfect
La tua sopracciglia sono perfetti
alloneword154 *Le tue sopracciglia sono perfette ;)
alloneword154 le tue sopraciglie sono perfette 😉
Great video! I just discovered your channel ;)
You are the BEST !
grazie mille da Venezuela
Un po dificile ma non cattivo. Bravo mi amico
Great video
Your explanations are great. Clitics are a stumbling block for me at the moment. Please can you do some more. For instance 'Noi ce l'abbiamo' just kills me. Help! :(
I finally understood that. It was driving me nuts.
Insegnante FANTASTICO!
Could you explain the expression "Ci vuole"? I understood it as "one needs"? Any hints?
Example:
Ci vuole tempo= It takes a lot/it takes a lot of time :)
Salve! Hey, I'm in Rome right now and have experienced people saying hello to me with "Hola". Have any idea what's going on?
Nicholas Waldon Hola is an other form of weilà, even if its use is more rare than other greetings. In Rome you can hear also "Aó" (between friends) and "A' pisché" that is "Hi guy" in roman dialect
It's just a funny reference to spanish. A lot of people in italy like spanish language, because of its connection with italian.
Hello Tom! Thank you for this video, really useful! I also study italian and I would like you to explain me another way to use ''ci'' come ''ci penso io'' or (just an example) ''ci si stavamo divertendo'' or as well ''ci sono riuscito''. That's what makes more problems as to me. If any italian person is reading this, could you please serve? Thank you in advance, hope you Tom will read this coment. Have a great weekend.
Alexander Kuzmin hi Alexander. "ci penso io" is like "I will do it" or "I'll keep it on mind". Ci in this case is the substitute of "a questo": "Penso io a questo" is "Ci penso io"
In "ci stavamo divertendo" ci is used as a reflexive pronoun for "noi": "Stavamo divertendo noi" is "Ci stavamo divertendo"
In "ci sono riuscito" ci is used as "a fare ciò", so the sentence can also be:"Sono riuscito a fare ciò"
Thank you!!! Really helpful!
I think that "ci" also can be translated to really' / For example when you say "Si, ci vengo" "Sure, l'll really come" ...
Im really come? Thats improper English.
What is the difference between ci and lì? Are they interchangeable?
Yes, they are interchangeable in some contexts. Like if you say "domani vado lì" or "domani ci vado" :)
Thank you for this! Why I'm struggling with Italian, I don't know. I'm living in Italy. With this struggle... Mancu li cani!
Good vidéo
bravo!
It's all clear now
Your hair is always so perfectly coiffed lol
thank you for all your lessons, they are improving my italian 😊, except this ci hahaha
Toxicita S you better than me 😁😀😁😀
Great video! If you wanted to say 'do you understand a little of it at least?' Would you say 'Ci capisci un poco almeno'?
Could you ever say "vengo là" ...when exactly is là or lì used because I hear ci so often
I guess ci always refers to places that were already mentioned?
Kandace Brown yes, ci is only used to refer to places already mentioned, or you don't know what are you talking about. Sometimes lí or là are used to say there, but I don't think that ci and lí are interchangeble(?) For example, you say "ci vengo" aka "i come there" but it sounds bad to say "vengo lí". It seems you are speaking about a place that you are pointing in that moment, (i don't know if I'm clear😂). Or you can say "starai bene lí" aka "you'll be fine there" but It does not sound so well say "ci starai bene" cause it seems that you're saying that you'll be fine with someone. It's a bit complicated😂
Grazie te
correct, we dont say ci è, we always say c'è (there is) but we can also say "ci sta"
