Today’s lesson is not only for all you Italian learners, but for all you males. Did you know that a lady doesn’t just wake up in the morning looking beautiful? Here’s a tip: If you want your female friend to look nice for your evening out, you’ll need to leave her time to get ready. Don’t just book a table for half an hour later, tell your girlfriend to get ready, slip on some jeans and hope that she’s ready to go. Manuel understands this, and has thought ahead; we hope you can too.
In today’s lesson, we will review the Italian periodo ipotetico, the theoretical functioning of its three main types, along with their tense agreement structure. Moreover, we will provide you with useful usage notes and learning tips. For more grammar explanations, review questions, and advanced lessons, visit ItalianPod101.com now!

Learn Italian with ItalianPod101.com! You are sitting in your class at the university in Italy today, and your professor promises a special challenge. You must admit, you are a little nervous. In the past, ’special challenge’ has meant anything from pop-quizzes to his grandmother’s secret recipe…blech, now THAT was a challenge! As your professor approaches the podium, he starts up the projector and begins showing slides of what appears to be animals from Australia. You are thoroughly confused now. He explains in Italian, “Your test results on the last exam were so bad that I decided I would give you an easy bonus grade. For each of these animals that you can name in Italian, I will give you five points on your exam…and believe me, you ALL need it!” With that, the class erupts into applause…but not you.
