We share the same wri:ng system; both languages include plenty of words with La:n roots; the basic sentence structure is the same; Italian is spoken the way that it is wri?en .  \nWhat’s the catch then? While English has very li?le inflec:on, Italian is a heavily inflected language, which basically means that we change word endings to modify their meaning. Nouns, pronouns, adjec:ves, and ar:cles can be masculine, feminine, singular or plural, and verbs are conjugated according to mood, tense, person, and number. Italian grammar can be quite complicated!  \nThis free handbook is an introduc:on to the main concepts and a quick reference guide . You will find the basic principles, simple explana:ons on how to use the main parts of speech, and regular verb conjuga:on in the tenses needed for everyday communica:on, with examples from current, authen:c conversa:onal Italian .  \nBuono studio!  \nAnna & Diana  \nThe complete edition of this quick reference guide is available on Amazon worldwide as eBook and paperback.

In Italian the inflection of verbs is called coniugazione (conjugation), but nouns, adjectives, articles, and other parts of speech can be inflected, too .  \nLatin was highly inflected, with seven cases, five declensions, four conjugations, and three genders . Italian and other Romance languages are comparatively simpler, with only two genders (masculine and feminine) and no grammatical cases . Still, most Italian words can be inflected, usually by changing their ending, and only a minority of words are invariable .  \nLet’s see some examples of inflection .  \nNouns can be masculine or feminine, singular or plural based on their ending:  \nbambino (masculine singular)  \nbambina (feminine singular)  \nbambini (masculine plural)  \nbambine (feminine plural  \nArticles and adjectives agree with the noun they refer to, so they also have masculine, feminine, singular and plural forms:  \ni bambini piccoli (masculine plural)  \nla bambina alta (feminine singular)  \nPronouns replace nouns, so they also have gender and number, like the English she/her, they/them, etc . We introduce pronouns on page 14 .  \nVerbs have various moods & tenses, persons and numbers . We introduce all seven moods and the most common tenses on pages 16 .  \n[myitaliancircle.com](myitaliancircle.com) 3  \nBasic concepts  \nBasic Sentence Structure  \nDid you know that very different languages like English, Italian, Russian, Hebrew, Thai, and Chinese share the same basic sentence structure? They are all SVO languages, which means that sentences are usually made up by the sequence:  \nSUBJECT-VERB-OBJECT  \nIn Italian, thanks to conjugation, the verb already contains a lot of information about the subject. Therefore the subject is often dropped, and our sentence ","cbCaillX20o1s5TH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaillX20o1s5TH","pdf",4890959,35,"English","# Introduction\n## Inflection - Flessione\n## Basic Sentence Structure\n### 1.1 Gender of nouns","[{\"question\":\"Why is Italian considered easy for English speakers at the start?\",\"answer\":\"Italian uses the same writing system as English and shares a similar basic sentence structure.
