Why other apps fail for Italian

Italian has unique challenges that multiple-choice apps simply cannot teach.

🤯 The congiuntivo nightmare

"Penso che lui e sia italiano" - One wrong verb form and natives cringe. Apps teach rules; you need practice.

😵 Essere or avere?

"Sono andato" vs "Ho camminato" - Why do some verbs use essere? Memorizing lists doesn't build instinct. Speaking does.

🎭 Passato prossimo vs imperfetto

"Ho mangiato" vs "Mangiavo" - Both mean "I ate" but communicate completely different things. Context is everything.

🔀 Pronoun chaos

"Glielo do", "Te lo dico", "Ce ne sono" - Double pronouns are a maze. You need real conversations to internalize them.

Built for Italian's unique challenges

Our AI tutor understands Italian grammar deeply and corrects you in real-time.

📚

Verb Tense Mastery

Practice passato prossimo, imperfetto, trapassato, and futuro in natural conversations. The AI explains when each tense fits the context.

Example correction:

Ieri ho andato Ieri sono andato

🎯

Congiuntivo Practice

Master the subjunctive mood with triggers like "penso che", "prima che", "sebbene". Build real instinct through repeated exposure.

Common triggers:

Credo che, Voglio che, Benche, Affinche...

Essere vs Avere Instinct

Stop guessing which auxiliary to use. Practice with motion verbs, reflexives, and intransitives until the right choice feels automatic.

Movement verbs:

andare, venire, arrivare, partire...

Real Italian, real corrections

See how our AI catches and explains the mistakes Italian learners actually make.

CONGIUNTIVO

You said:

"Spero che tu hai tempo"

Correct:

"Spero che tu abbia tempo"

Why: "Sperare che" triggers the congiuntivo presente.

AUXILIARY

You said:

"Lei ha arrivato ieri"

Correct:

"Lei e arrivata ieri"

Why: Motion verbs like "arrivare" use essere, and the past participle agrees with the subject.

PRONOUNS

You said:

"Gli lo dico domani"

Correct:

"Glielo dico domani"

Why: Gli + lo combine into the double pronoun "glielo".

TENSE

You said:

"Quando ero bambino, sono andato al mare ogni estate"

Correct:

"Quando ero bambino, andavo al mare ogni estate"

Why: Repeated past actions use imperfetto, not passato prossimo.
