It's Angela same😳

To Spanish speakers too!

David yo tambien

😍

We are doing videos up until someone who is italian wants to make more of these. But still, we'll make some new ones, we have two videos to cut and we'll try to release them every two weeks.

You should. All of those languages you speak come from Italian anyways!!

Hey, Junior! I am studying English, French, Spanish, Italian and German. I am Brazilian too. Fell welcome to contact and practic these languages. So I`ve got intermidiate level. skype: Uncle Gerry Wsapp: 074 044 235 81

Harrison Hatton They come from Latin, not Italian! Although Italian and Latin are quite similar it's different.

@@inessan8311 True. English, Italian etc all come from Latin.

Thank you Janusz! ^_^

Sarebbe un'ottima idea! :)

Well that's a beautiful compliment. On behalf of all my fellow countrymen, thank you :'D

He lives in Nice, which borders Italy.

These interviewers are phony they barely can speak real italian

How many languages does he speak?

Coming soon enough! ^^

Easy French _ Anthony Please! Maybe they can be a bit longer?

Yes sure! :) It will be a bit longer but it truly depends on the content. The next one will be bigger.

bambino = child bambini = children kkk lol

That’s because Spanish is to Italian like Irish is to English. Same language family.

Well not exactly you must you know so something but I got to say you can't understand everyething grammar is different and some word roots change and iniduvial words are different too so I don't understand

Yes, you're right

yes. it's him

+mattinuk grazie :')

I miei pensamenti exactamente. Pero, credo che l'hanno tradotto cosí semplicemente per essere compreso dalle persone chi parlano l'inglese. Ma sono d'accordo; traduca la lingua, non la cultura. Ancora apprezzo questa canale molto.

isn't that like baby jesus?

mattinuk I would like to explain that Gesù Bambino is a different character of the Christmas in countries with a strong Latin background. In Spanish we say “ Niño Jesús “ who is the same “Gesù Bambino” this name for Jesús Christ has to do with the fact that Jesus was born and therefore at that time he was a baby. We celebrate “ Jesus the Baby” . Christmas celebrates the birth of “Gesù Bambino” who later becomes Jesus Christ.

They live (or have lived) in Nice, a French city which is next to Italy. They probably learned both languages growing up.

I was so surprised too!!! OMG

No, but it is close to Italy.

Yes indeed! ^^ Almost two years. But those videos are brand you and is made by the Easy French team, here is why it took so long, because there was no one to make those videos before.

Hi Jessica! Tell me what you think is wrong here, nothing is more wrong than with the Easy French videos. We're not here in class, the italian that's "taught" here is the italian that people speak in the streets. Anyway, it's the first video we've made for Easy Italian, if you want to help us improve, we take all tips! = )

Easy French _ Anthony ok sure :) First : benvenuti because you say -- ciao a tutti .. that is "hi everybody :) " so we need a-- " benvenuti " and not -benvenuto- cause it is plural :) . Now when you say : " oggi andiamo a chiedere alla gente cosa pensa di natale" : you can say that but no one use this form in Italy, it is very uncommon. This form of the prhase it is good for spanish : vamos a preguntar (we are going to ask ) but in italian is better to use, -----oggi chiederemo --, as a future :) Di natale, not totally right, it is del Natale :) - Cosa lei pensa di Natale :almost totally right but in the wrong order, as formal you have to say : " Cosa ne(ne in this case is like a link to the subject Xmas) pensa lei del natale :) " P.s dont get me wrong, i'm totally addicted to your channel and I'm learning a LOT watching your videos

I don't completely agree that you have to do it the 'right way.' Yes, if there are glaring mistakes then they should be pointed out and corrected, but as Anthony said, we are not in a classroom here. In a normal conversation, we are more willing to forgive a minute error here and there. To dismiss the breadth of good work that the channel has done on account of a few errors (and they are mistakes that tend to be forgivable for the most part) is a little too much.

well this is the right way for any italian :) i'm not a teacher so I won't explain to you all the grammar rules BUT if you want to learn a lenguage you have to do it correctly that's all ;)

jessica Fabr Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to undermine or insult the tips you've given because they certainly are very helpful. The best person to correct something is definitely one who speaks it natively, and that's you.

First part is incorrect, lei is for woman, Lei (note the capitalization) is formal for either gender. Although lui is indeed for a man.

Be that the case, it's not what those interviewed said! A rather selective translation.

yes because most italians don't know anything. But also because, I guess, they are istructed by the interviewer to speak slowly. In reality they don't speak so slow!

lingue neolatine ;)

por demonios, esta lingua mediteranea

Yes, but other speakers have already pointed out the errors. I think they have taken it upon themselves to make the videos so nobody can "change" them 🙂

Well it doesn't matter they making good video for us

***** well they appear to have translated "gesu bambino" as Father Christmas in the subtitles, so apparently it matters a great deal!

Who cares? Do they speak it well? (They do.) Are they putting in great effort to produce this video? (They are.) These are more than enough reasons to like this video. The fact that they aren't Italian is irrelevant.

JudgeHill83 Which actually isn't an incorrect interpretation; some of the interviewed say "Babbo Natale" and some say "Gesù bambino". The important thing here is that these are figures that bring presents and the easiest way to convey this sense in subtitles is to put "Father Christmas / Santa Claus". Subtitling is really more about the gist rather than a word-for-word translation.

JudgeHill83 Hi! :) I know what "Gesù bambino" means, it's just that I found it more logical to put "father Christmas" here. Don't believe we do everything without checking the translation at least twice, so, putting "father christmas" is here a choice, backed up by wordreference and of,course other sources (www.wordreference.com/iten/gesu%20bambino).

they are italians on the street... your language course might just be horrible for actually learning the language (sorry to say!)

Sarah Swiderski he meant that the interviewers' pronunciation and grammar was off.

Non hanno mica detto che "oggi siamo in Italia"?
