Italian Verb Conjugation Primer Tutorial<\/p><\/div>\n

Learning Italian as a native English speaker is best done when you are young, and beginning recently on this quest, I learnt a bit of this.<\/p>\n

To me, what stuck out, was how easy we get it in English with regard to (the lack of) conjugating<\/a> verbs, or articles, or adjectives, in our grammar.<\/p>\n

Is it that, in English, we can say something in a hurry and, sort of, wait to fix it up later, because we don’t conjugate verbs in our mind, or is this not how it works in other languages? Actually, am pretty sure no, because conjugation is done so fast in the minds of Italian speakers that it is no issue … hard to imagine, though, from where I’m standing … well, actually, sitting. Am not here to say, but know it is this, that teachers of Italian to English native speakers, concentrate on in early lessons.<\/p>\n

With this in mind, we don’t for one second pretend we are not using the wonderful resources at WordReference.com<\/a> with today’s web application, but we thank them for their brilliance, and just rearrange things that you could glean perfectly well from here<\/a> but need to take a few more steps to reach the conjugation (today it’s just verbs) web page bits, whereas we throw the conjugation bits straight at you. And yes, we do try to cater for the irregular verbs, and where they are regular you should see the word “regular” mentioned in the yellow zone conjugation areas … because we all know … well, you know what we mean<\/a>?!<\/font><\/p>\n

The techniques used today do away with any need for a server side language by channelling the Ajax jQuery thoughts we presented with Ajax jQuery Primer Tutorial<\/a> to make the most of the great resource that WordReference.com is. This happens in our HTML and Javascript programming source code you could call italian_conjugation.html<\/a> with this live run<\/a> link.<\/p>\n

So we hope you enjoy this break from our usual (other way around) ESL<\/a> game (if it’s a game) to some “Conjugate, Italian Style” play.<\/p>\n
