15. To Stay or To Be: That is The Question (5 Min. A Day)
Level: 5 Minutes A Day
Learn Italian with LearnItalianPod.com – Learn Italian with LearnItalianPod.com – Episode #15 of LearnItalianPod “5 Minutes A Day” lesson series is now live! This one is entitled “To Stay or To Be: That Is The Question”. Several LearnItalianPod VIP Members have requested that we explained why and when the verb “stare” (to stay) is used versus the verb “essere” (to be). Although both “essere” and “stare” mean “to be”, they are not interchangeable, and this can create a bit of confusion to students of Italian. — So, let’s shed some light on these two verbs and let’s try, once and for all, to answer the question: “To Stay or To Be?”. Enjoy!

14. The Omnipresent Verb “Fare” (5 Minutes A Day)
Level: 5 Minutes A Day
Learn Italian with LearnItalianPod.com – Episode #14 of LearnItalianPod “5 Minutes A Day” lesson series is now live! This one is entitled “The Omnipresent Verb ‘Fare’”. VIP Member Matteo from San Francisco, California sent us some great feedback. He says: “I love learning Italian. He’s such a musical language, and you can get caught up in that music!”
- Then he adds: “I’ve recently spent one entire month in Italy, and one of the things I’ve noticed is how much Italians use the verb ‘fare’ (to do, to make), and how many Italian idiomatic expressions use this verb, where English use other verbs. I think that a lesson about this verb is in order, Jane & Massimo… do you agree?”
We do, Matteo, thank you! So, let’s learn and practice the important verb “fare” together with a lot of useful, ready-to-use idiomatic expressions. Enjoy!
