I was amazed at how much I understood by stopping and breaking down the words. I'm in my 1st semester of Italian and 66 years old. Thank you so much.
Possibly one of the most important language learning lesson ever!
Si, ma perchè alora scrive qua in inglese, e non seque questo consiglio? cioè praticare praticare praticare colla grande possibilità anche se si fa errore, come io adesso
This is such an intelligent, fun, useful "course" in Italian. Great presenters, well constructed dialogue and really useful topics. Thanks a lot and please keep it up.
Alan O’Neill...agree. They’re my favourites.❤️
You right! This channel is so good I love it!!
A nice couple 😊 they explain everything so clearly without us having to ask them any more questions.
Exactly.
This episode kind of captures the essence of Easy Italian. Just repeating these videos and watching a dozen over the last few months has helped my "ear" for Italian and also taught me some "chunks" which is starting to make this language comprehensible! Thank you, Katie and Matteo!
grazie a te!
I can listen the italian language all day everyday.
Its just beautiful.
😉
In addition to talking to yourself in your head, it helps to talk out loud, too. This way you get use to hearing yourself say things with sounds you don't normally make. Doing this in front of a mirror gives you the sense of talking to another person but it isn't necessary.
When I first started watching your videos I didn’t strive to understand everything you said. I thought of it like a marinade. I just watched, tried to understand some, and then later watched another. My “marinading” is working. I’m slowly absorbing it all without getting frustrated or too self-critical.
I'm a language teacher and this is a great way to listen. See if you can get the gist, don't panic, and listen lots.
Forse, provati scrivere un commento in Italiano pure?
Haha, that’s me at that window giving myself a hard time about my Italian! Nice to know it’s not just me. Great ideas. You’ve inspired me to keep going, thank you.
I’m a new learner and sometimes I wake up or dream of words in Italian. Of course it’s totally beginner words , but I’m passionate about wanting to get better
Pensare in Italiano è un magnifico idea! Grazie per questa video.
Il problema è che la lingua non deve essere appresa solo lessicalmente, ma anche culturale, comportamentale e persino emotivo!
You guys are brilliant. I began reading Italian recently to gain fluency. I am working from home at the moment and I listen to one of your videos each hour. I couldn't understand much at the start but today I noticed a difference and it was very encouraging. Keep up the good work!!
Grazie mille! 😄😄
I can't believe I scrolled through a bunch of the comments and no one mentioned your excellent taste in music! Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy is a classic! Bravissimo!
My native language is Persian (Farsi). For my second language, I used the "thinking technique" that you mentioned and it did wonders!
Although I just did it because I didn't have anyone to talk to, in the end, I realized that It had helped me a lot. And when it came down to the actual speaking, I would speak much more fluently as if I had already practiced the lines.
So Italian is gonna be my third language and by applying those same techniques that I used for English, I find that my Italian learning process has been a lot smoother.
Well, your English is a great advert for the technique.

Katie and Matteo, you are great teachers. You make it sound so easy. I love listening to your videos. It's helping me immensely to practice my Italian. Thank you both.
Ve la dico tutta da quando ho iniziato a parlare da solo ad alta voce o meglio fare il narratore di ciò che faccio in un qualsiasi momento, i risultati sono schizzati in alto secondo me, veramente consigliatissimo, sono concordo con tutto in questo video! siete bravi raga!, grazie:)
ho visto diversi vostri video e devo fare i complimenti a Katie, ha una dizione fantastica, c'ho messo diversi minuti per capire se fosse italiana o meno :D, questo video è stato comunque molto utile per me che sto cercando di imparare l'inglese, il ragionare mentalmente con un'altra lingua ti da' una marcia in più. Grazie!
Grazie mille! Siamo felici che questo video possa aiutare non solo chi sta imparando l'italiano 😁😁
Very good advice regarding children not having to know grammar in order to make a start in language learning.
I'm not even learning Italian, but I love these type of videos. I'm a French teacher and I find this rule of the three A's very useful for my students, because they always get frustated when they can't pronounce a word or don't remember how to say something. Grazie mille ragazzi!
Sono molto felice di trovarvi! Sto studiando l'italiano negli stati uniti nelle classi dal Istituto Italiano di Cultura a Los Angeles e San Diego. (su Zoom) Quanto finisco entrambe le lezioni in giugno, studierò con voi quest'estate! Diventerò un patreon. Non vedo l'ora. Grazie tanto.
Dall'istituto*
Grazie tante* ("grazie mille" can also be used)
I was born in Rome but left at 18 months old, so if I learned any Italian then, I forgot it. But listening to it without trying to understand is super relaxing for me, as if it brings me back to an early childhood state of revery where you're just ultra receptive (or 'absorbent'). I guess I should try the same with some other languages and see if I feel the same.
Hi guys, this episode states what I have always thought is the best way to learn a language. The Absorption part. The Automation part. The reference to children learning without the grammar. I think most schools err by teaching scholasticly (if that exist) . For me the trick was exposure to English sounds... listening to records with lyrics in both languages expanded my vocabulary and taught me how to pronounce even fast tongue twisters. Having TV on whenever I was indoors allowed me to finally hear the separation between words at the end of US stay. When people ask me how I learned English so well (I am mother language Italian) I tell them by immersion. I did not hang out with Italians when in the US, I did not read in Italian (I still read mostly in English) I totally embraced English. It is my go-to language actually though some Italian sayings are irresistible. I know my chickens is one! :-) or Perdersi in un bicchier d'acqua! LOL!
I love your series they explain so much about language, Italian culture and the process of learning. Great job! Katie, your pronunciation is excellent!!!!
Ciao Katie. Ciao Matteo.
Non ho problemi con assorbire ed automatizzare l'italiano. Ho un amico italiano che vive a Como a cui mando spesso dei messaggi vocali. L'unica problema è accettare che non posso dire tutto che voglio dire. Quando parliamo delle cose un po più profondo, a un certo punto noto che il mio italiano semplicemente non basta per spiegare i miei sentimenti o opinioni. Questo mi fa impazzire.
grazie ragazzi...sono un americano che vivo qui in italia. ho consigliato vostro bel lavoro agli amici! al inizio anche io cercato per i modi migliori di smettere di tradurre in mia testa, i vostri consigli sono buonissimi. due altri che ho trovato sono di guardare i film, prima quelli che ho già conosciuto in inglese, doppiati in italiano, poi alle fine in italiano, per vedere come le parole sono assaporato...secondo, coraggio! parla, parla, parla...qualsiasi parole che avrei potuto mettere in fila di dire, dirla! più che parla, più che diventa naturale. a volta mi sono trovato dicendo le coniugazioni che non ho studiato mai, la logica della grammatica italiana arriverà! probabile la vostra "a" per "accettazione" sarebbe quella più importante, avrò sempre mio accento, e farò sempre qualche errore...anche i italiani fanno!
I LOVE your videos! Please don’t stop making them, they are so helpful for Italian language and culture learning
...che grande e utile video!! Vi ringrazio tantissimo!! Da veramente speranza che un giorno sarò in grado di parlare italiano liberamente!!! Tanti cordiali saluti!! Michaela
Grazie! I'm trying to learn from my kids on how to approach italian. My youngest, 2, repeats everything I say. My oldest, 4, will constantly make the same mistakes like 'I goed' because we add '-ed' to most past verbs so irregular verbs in English confuses her. Così, repeat, repeat and try getting the point across and hopefully someone will correct your italian. We have to act like kids in learning all new languages with patience and practice. Good luck everyone!
I am so glad to have found your videos! You both make learning Italian so much fun. I have found myself saying words in Italian to my husband, cats and dogs. None of whom can understand a word I’m saying! 🤣 But it’s a fun way for me to practice and I am excited to have even just a little knowledge for our trip to Rome in April.
Thank you so much for this video. I am currently using Rosetta Stone to learn Italian, which is using the 'learn as you would if you were a child' approach, lots of repetition, no grammatical rules, you kind of figure it out as you go along. I supplement that course with listening to lots of music, vlogs, TV shows etc, just like I did when I did not speak English yet (I am Dutch living in the UK). And of course your videos and the FB group help a great deal to connect with others and to learn a bit more about the 'why' and 'how'. Thank you!
ho incontrato questo concetto che chiamate chunking poco tempo fa quando stavo trovando nel dizzionario la parola locuzione. penso che sia un concetto molto molto importante e sono contento che l'avete incluido nel qusto bel video. grazie per tutto il vostro bel lavoro. siete grandi.
Ogni giorno ascolto l'italiano per 30 minuti, mi aiuta tantissimo
I needed this. I have lost my confidence over the last two weeks. I will throw myself back into it and not worry about mistakes. I'm a beginner so I will make lots of mistakes.
Love you two together! I can feel my Italian improving all the time!
This was really interesting. At the moment when I watch your video, my eyes are spinning between the Italian, the English translation and watching you to see how you say the words! Good point about how children learn. I get disheartened and want to give up. You give reassurance. Matteo , do you do the same with English. If you reply, please in Italian so I can practice, even if I have to look up every word! 😀
CIao! Certo faccio la stessa cosa, ascolto podcast, guardo video e film solo in inglese :D è il modo che preferisco per imparare una lingua :D
you two are a resource I wish I had for every language!!! keep up the awesome content :)
Siete fantastico!!! Mi piacciono tanto i vostri video!!! Ho migliorato il mio italiano con te :) Grazie mille!
OMG I almost had to blink back tears when she said, WHY can't I remember anything, while at the window. I was thinking the same thing and felt it was just me.
On a more happy note, when you started talking about thinking in Italian, I looked at my desk and said, una bottiglia di acqua 😀
That's a great start! 💪😉
You two do a great job! The lessons are a great learning tool.
Molto bene questi informazioni grazie mille 🌹❤️
This was soooo helpful. You are describing exactly what is happening for me . Encouraging. Thank you.
Accettare--è di gran lunga il più difficile per me. Grazie per tutto quello che fate! (È incoraggiante per me/noi!)
Mille grazie per questo, Katie e Matteo! 🇮🇹
This was so helpful in giving a realistic approach to the different phases of learning Italian or any language learning.
Thanks so much!!!!
Love you guys - listen to you every day
Grazie per l'ottimo consiglio, continuerò a imparare italiano.
Siete bravi come sempre.
Love this approach thank you. I’m steadily learning Italian and i am always on the look out for new techniques of learning.. ☺️ 🇮🇹
Questi sono ottimi consigli. Grazie!
Excellent as usual👏. One of the most difficult things is talking / listening on the telephone or door intercom. So listen to the Italian radio lots too. Xx
Do you have common phrases like "non vedo l'ora" that you recommend to help with automation?
Anch´io è un molto interessente questione.
I look forward to
Non vedo l’ora di mangiare la pizza, ho fame
Quanto costa? How much is this , spero sia utile (hope you find this helpful)
Non ho probemi per accettare il mio italiano ne per automatizzare. Ho già imparato l'inglese, poi ho un po' di esperienza nell'apprendimento di una lingua. Assorbire è forse una cosa che devo migliorare, leggere di più in italiano, ascoltare più, e così. Tutti i giorni guardo un video in italiano.
"Katie why didn't you open the window?", "Because i forgot what the word for window is in Italian" 😄ahahah i love this channel.
I find if I focus on the Italian subtitles I understand a great deal of it, I think the brain takes in the English underneath, it's really boosting my learning.
I LOVE your videos from Japan🥰
Thanks for sharing
Thank you and Happy Christmas to you both x
Ottimi consigli. Grazie!
Chunking......brilliant grazie 🙏 molto utile
you are always a star thanks a lot!
My aunty lived in Italy for 40+ years as a native English speaker; her funniest mix up between Italian and English was coming home and saying something cost her “40 million euros”, getting the “mille” of thousand in italian conflated with the million in English 🤣
Great advice, grazie!
Genios, muy agradable la explicación!
Grazie per aiutarci in processo di apprendimento
Mi piace l'idea di "chunking". Mi piacerrebe avere molti frasi in italiano studiare.
حلو يا حلوة
molte* da studiare*
I am learning. Thanks. Questo è molto utile.
Questo metodo del chunking non l'avevo mai sentito in nessun'altro canale di lingue... Super interessante, siete bravissimi! Good job, cheers!!
Brillante! Vi voglio bene ragazzi.
"Questo sì"- Houses of the Holy.
Che bel gusto musicale Katie.
I just wrote a long comment but then I put it on the comments for the wrong video. That's embarrassing. It was too long to write again as it can take me 15 minutes or more to write one Italian sentence - and I still get most of it wrong. But, I was proudly trying to demonstrate my lack of ability. My biggest problem - Accettare. Thank you for sharing your own difficulties. It gives me, and I'm sure others, a little courage. I will try your 3 A's, but acceptance, that's the tough one.
Nessuno è perfetto, io non sono pefetta, i nostri insegnanti non sono perfetti... e neanche tu. Sorridi e tutti gli Italiani che incontrerai ti aiuteranno ad imparare la nostra lingua. Un sorriso vale infinitamente di più di molte autocriche e... rende il mondo migliore.
@@mimmiblu6138 Thank you, Mimmi.
Just discovered you both!! you guys are great!! Thanks!!
This is such an exceptionally helpful video! It addressed so many of the mistakes I've been making while trying to learn to speak fluently. Bravo!
Thank you!
grazie grazie mille!
The best of the very best!
Questo video è stupendo! Non vedo l'ora di condividerlo con tutti i miei studenti. Conosco i miei polli. Bravissimi!
Farò lo stesso io... anche se insegno inglese... funziona con tutte le lingue!
Grazie per i consigli ! Dalla Francia !
Thank you for helping me. Grazie per l'aiuto
Per me, è molto interessante. Sto studiando l"italiano per circa 15 anni, i recentemente ho comminciato di pagare per "Easy Italian". Mi piace molto: spero che il mio livello di italiano sia circa C1. Recentemente, ho notato è commune per me di pensare in italiano prima di dormire. Anchè, un anno fa ho dovuto avere due anestetici: le infermiere hanno detto, che dopo, come sono tornato dopo le operazione, avevo parlato l"italiano! Spero di non aver usato parolacce!
You are both amazing! You make me laugh while I am learning. Thank you so much xxx
mi piace molto.Grazie.
Ciao grazie, per il video!
Mi sembra un'ottima idea!
Ciao Maria.
Ciao Katie e Matteo, grazie per questo video. Imparo l'italiano per guardare e commentare :)
Ho exercisi di Patreon. Penso voi facciate molto bene!
non vedo l'ora!!
Amo ascoltarvi
Ciao! Grazie mille per i consigli.😊
"Apro la finestra, uso la...Come si chiama?" Primo ho pensato che Katie ha dimenticato il nome della mano destra 😂.
To Katie and Matteo: Love your videos - learning and laughing
Grazie. Your 3 As Will help me.
grazie mille.
Siete veramente bravissimi
Molto bene grazie mi piace questo video per in parare la lingua italiana
Ben fatto Katie e Matteo :) Adesso vado a pensare in italiano! Seguite di fare ottime puntate 👏🏼 grazie mille a voi due!!
Seems easy but it will take time to get to be fluent, I like this approach. will give it a try
This is great, I'm definitely going to apply these, being able to remove that translation delay will help a lot. I am curious though, do you dream in Italian or in English or a bit of both?
I wish I knew my chickens! vorrei conoscere le mie polli!
this was a really good booster lesson thank you both so much, tomorrow I will talk to myself all day!. Grazie a voi!!
I like them... When i see the videos.. I can see how to speak soon.. Grazie mille
Grazie tante per le molti parole di incoraggiamento! Posso certamente usarle. Un grande lavoro!
molte* parole 👍
Penso che sia stato uno dei tuoi migliori video, grazie. Ed erano quelle Houses of the Holy che hai scelto? Una scelta eccellente!!!!
Una bravissima coppia!!
I catch myself translating Italian to Bulgarian (my native language) or English if the words sound similar and I just do it by association. I studied Italian for 7 years (grades 1-7), but now it's been almost 7 years since I've actively used the language. It's my second time coming back at it and translating words and simpler sentences almost becomes a way for me to convince myself I haven’t forgotten the language. It's annoying because with English I don't even remember now a time in which I've translated something in my head while listening, reading, talking etc. Definitely need to expand my vocabulary and start learning more complex grammar, your videos are extremely helpful with the English subtitles right below the Italian ones!
