You started speaking to your son in Italian from the time he was an infant, and now that he is a toddler, he is beginning to speak Italian himself. However, your wife’s Italian is not very good and she gets very frustrated when she cannot understand what her precocious toddler is saying. In fact, just today you walked in on your wife and son arguing-your wife in English and son in Italian­­-over his favorite toy! He teasingly told her in Italian, “you’ll never find it” when it was his time to put up the toys and take a nap. At dinnertime, he spit out his food and yelled in Italian, “I don’t like it!” And later at bedtime, “you can’t make me!” Your wife pleads with him to speak English to her, but of course, your son thinks it’s very funny that he knows something his mother does not. So tonight is her first Italian lesson. You know exactly where she needs to start!

The Italian Direct Object Pronoun intervention was a success. You don’t get on everyone’s nerves anymore. However, you have been living in Italy for a while now and you really wish you sounded just a bit more…well, Italian. Your Italian friends taught you the Italian pronouns you need to keep them from ostracizing you completely. Yet, did they teach you how to use them correctly? People can understand what you are saying to them in Italian-and you are doing great with your Italian language studies…but you still sound, well, foreign. Imagine how surprised your friends in Italy would be if you started studying Italian in your spare time here with us at ItalianPod101 and suddenly started speaking better Italian than them! Then, you can tell them in Italian, “ItalianPod101.com! I couldn’t have done it without them!” Learning Italian with ItalianPod101.com is the most fun and effective way to learn Italian! In this Italian Newbie lesson, we will continue learning about Italian direct object pronouns. In the previous lesson, we looked at how gender and number affects these Italian pronouns. In this lesson, we will actually look at how to form the Italian pronouns and where they belong in the sentence. Then we will talk about The Fountain of the Triton in Italy!
