Conjugating Regular Italian Verbs Ending in -ARE

I know you were dreading this day, but we eventually have to start conjugating verbs! Don't worry, once you learn the pattern, you can apply it to any verb, so let's just get this out of the way so that we can start building lots of different sentences in Italian.

Script by Patrizia Farina, Professor of Italian at Western Connecticut State University and Purchase College.

Check out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!

I wish duolingo would start you with the infinitive form of verbs before showing how to conjugate them....might not have to look up conjugation explanations on youtube then 😅

I had to slow down the audio to keep up, but I’m a beginner so maybe that’s why. Good tutorial. It was very clear and thorough.
