CHi guys, here we are today with the top 25 Italian verbs. Let’s go see them!

to 不定詞

Essere “To be” To be or not to be one. essere is just the

現在進行式

plain form that we are going to change for every person that we use. So in the case of

me, I can say Io sono Desiree. which means I am Desiree but the verb is still essere

Avere “To have” Avere means to have but be careful because

in Italian, it’s not the same as in English. So for example, to say I am 20 years old,

you don’t say essere, so you don’t use to be but you say I have 20 years old. Io

Fare “To do” Basically fare it’s a general verb like

you can use it with a lot of things. We have the specific verbs but if you go with fare

it’s safe. You can use it any time. fare a cake, fare a discussion. Everything is fare.

Dire “To say” About dire, there is a fun phrase that we use,

or maybe our grandmas, anyway. And it goes like, Tra il dire e il fare c’è di mezzo

il mare, that means “from saying to doing, there is the sea in between”. So the meaning

is it’s not so easy to go from saying to doing things.

Potere “Can” Potere means can and it’s really useful

because you can use it to ask permission. So Posso usare il bagno? “Can I use the

bathroom?” Potere as a verb means can but potere with the article before, that is, il

potere means “the power”. Puoi passarmi lo zucchero per favore? means “Can you pass

me the sugar, please?” Sugar because I like sweet things.

Volere “Want” Volere means want but it’s kind of a strong

way to say things. So if you want to say I would like to it’s Volere. There is a famous

phrase with volere, that is Volere è potere, and it means if you really want to do something,

Sapere “To know” When you are wrong and you tell people that

you know that you are wrong, somehow they are happy. So if you are in Italy and you

are late, and it always happens to me at least, you can say I know, I know, I know I am late…

Lo so, lo so, so di essere in ritardo... and that will calm things. Like people will be

like ok, ok vi aspetto okay, okay I am waiting but anyway for us it’s kind of normal to

be late. So don’t worry too much if you are late.

Stare “To stay” And you can use it with a location or with

a condition. Do you want to go out tonight? Vuoi uscire stasera? you can say, no I am

staying home. No, sto a casa. but it can also mean a condition. So if people ask you hey

how are you Sto male means I am not good. I feel sick. Also you can use that to say

that you are doing something. You are in the process of doing something Sto studiando.

I am studying now. Something that’s right now.

Dovere “Must” So if you have to work or if you have to do

homework and people ask you ey again, do you want to go out tonight? No I can’t Devo

studiare Devo lavorare. I have to study, I have to work.

Prendere “To take” Prendere means to take. You can take a bus

prendere un pullman take the underground prendere la metro. Be careful because we don’t use

prendere for example with the bath or a shower. We don’t take a shower but we do a shower.

Vedere “To see” Vedere means to see and it’s something that

you can see, you can spot but you can also use it as meeting, like, Cosa fai stasera?

What are you doing tonight? or I am seeing my mother or vedo mia mamma. That means I

am going to meet her, probably have dinner together but it’s something planned. It’s

something that I know already I am going to do.

Andare “To go” So in case you really, really want to go to

the sea, you can say Voglio andare al mare, vieni con me? I want to go to the sea, do

you want to come with me? In my case, it would be I would really like

to go to Australia, do you want to come with me? Voglio veramente andare in Australia,

Venire “To come” In fact, venire means to come and when you

invite someone, you can say do you want to come tonight Vuoi venire stasera?

Dare “To give” Can you give me some advice please Puoi darmi

un consiglio, per favore? or when a baby is crying and you are like here, here look what

I am giving you Guarda, guarda cosa ti do! So that’s a way of giving.

parlare for both of them. I am talking to you Sto parlando con te. or I speak Japanese

Io parlo giapponese. Agli Italiani piace parlare molto. Italians like to talk a lot. Can you say that?

something like I find this book really interesting Trovo questo libro molto interessante. or

anymore in front of the checking gates and I am like can you please help me and then

I find it again. So yes, Ho trovato il passaporto.

urlare. but it’s not the same as saying listening to music for example. That would

Credere“To believe” Credere means to believe but in Italian, we

don’t use that much to believe like ah I believe I can do that. Of course you can say

it and people will understand you but that’s more I think I can do it. So Penso di farcela.

more than Credo di farcela. I believe credere is more about leisures meeting.

Portare “To bring” Portare that means to bring. So if I am inviting

you to my party tonight and I ask you, can you bring the wine Puoi portare il vino? bring
