Ciao a tutti! In questo episodio vi racconterò come ho intenzione di svolgere le mie lezioni con gli studenti che vorranno studiare l'italiano con me in questo 2023. Buon ascolto a tutti e al prossimo episodio!

The Italian Miscellaneous Podcast for beginners

I miei propositi qui su Italki per questo 2023!

POSTAL CLERK: What can I do for you today?
CAROL: I need to mail this package to New York, please.
POSTAL CLERK: OK, let’s see how much it weighs … it’s about 
five pounds. If you send it express, it will get there 
tomorrow. Or you can send it priority and it will get 
there by Saturday.
CAROL: Saturday is fine. How much will that be?
POSTAL CLERK: $11.35 [eleven thirty-five]. Do you need anything else?
CAROL: Oh, yeah! I almost forgot. I need a book of stamps, too.
POSTAL CLERK: OK, your total comes to $20.35
[twenty dollars and thirty-five cents].


LANGUAGE NOTES
• What can I do for you today? Notice that this question starts with “What,” so the 
intonation drops at the end of the question.
• Or you can send it priority … Notice the stress on “or,” which emphasizes that there is 
another possibility.
• $11.35 ... $20.35 Notice the two different ways the postal clerk says the price. First he 
says eleven thirty-five (without the words dollars and cents), then he says twenty dollars 
and thirty-five cents.
• Oh, yeah! is an expression used here to mean “I just remembered something.” It’s often 
followed by “I almost forgot.”
• Your total comes to … is a way of saying “the cost is ….”

Fêter Halloween avec une playlist francophone, c'est ce que je vous propose dans ce nouvel épisode de Douce France 👻

Douce France

Fêter Halloween en musique 

Listen to a story about a time I was scared. 
Review narrative tenses. Narrative tenses are past tenses we use to tell stories. There are four tenses we use: 
- past simple (-ed / irregular)
- past continuous (was / were + verb-ing)
- past perfect simple (had + past participle)
- past perfect continuous (had + been + verb-ing)
Listen to the story and notice the past tenses you here. Complete the quiz: Narrative tenses 1 after you finish. Remember, you can listen to the story again and write down the past tense examples you hear. 
Enjoy! 😀
