La negazione

Ciao!


Oggi, noi studieremo come creare frasi negativamente

Today we are going to study how to make negative sentences in Italian.

To do this, you just need to use the Italiano Word Non

Put Non between the subject and the verb and that's how you create a negative sentence in Italian.

Let's see this:

LEI DORME

(SHE SLEEPS)

LEI NON DORME

(SHE DOESN'T SLEEP)

IO VADO AL CINEMA

(I GO TO THE CINEMA)

IO NON VADO AL CINEMA

(I DON'T GO TO THE CINEMA)

BALLATE?

(DO YOU DANCE)

NON BALLATE?

(DON'T YOU DANCE)

As you can see, in Italian is not necessary to introduce the subject.  You just know that we are talking about "you" (voi) just after looking at 

Come stai/ Come sta?

Buon giourno!

Today we are going to get some extra vocabulary to start a simple conversation in Italian

Come Stai (Tu)?

Come Sta (Loro)?

Both means How are you? Come stai is more informal however.

To answer this question.  For example I'm fine, we use the verb Stare as you can see  in the questions.  A verb from the first group:

ITALIANO	ENGLISH
IO STO	I AM
TU STAI	YOU ARE
LUI, LEI STA	HE/SHE/YOU (FORMAL) IS
NOI STIAMO	WE ARE
VOI STATE	YOU ARE
LORO STANNO	THEY ARE

-Buon giorno Carla.  Come stai?

• Sto bene (I'm fine)
• Benissimo, grazie (Very good, thank you)

• Molto bene (very good)
• Non c’è male (Not so bad)
• Mi sento male (I'm feeling bad)
• Molto male (Vey bad)

- E tu, E Lei? (And You)

- Bene grazie

So now it's your turn.  I hope you enjoy your new Italian class.
