 learning without pain March 22, 2002

This easy to use, very comprehensive book is excellent for refreshing, or learning, the Italian verbs. The exercises are simplified, and gradually introduce new verbs. The explanations are clear, and easy to understand. By studying it regularly, the usage of verbs becomes easier, and thereby improves the general Italian. Inexpensive, but top quality contents. Congratulations. Lanette Nielsen (Denmark)

Verbs are the key to communicating. You might freewheel a little in the Tarzan fashion ( me Tarzan, you Jane, he Boy ). Next stage is to use a verb ( Tarzan swim, Boy play, Jane work ). This book expains clearly the mechanisms for forming and using Verbs WITH LOTS OF PRACTICE and the answers at the end of the book.Invaluable help for beginners like me.
Work through this book patiently and whatever else you don't know at the end, the constant repetition means that verbs are no longer a part of what you don't know. I reckon that the amount of work I have done means that the cost of this book to me is about 10 pence per hour
 An excellent resource for learning Italian verb formations. July 10, 2000

This book gives brief but clear explanations of how and when different verb tenses should be used. After each description it then gives several pages of practice exercises. These range from translating Italian to Italian, Italian to English and English to Italian using all the subject pronouns. In particular the exercises leave you with a better understanding of what the English equivalent of each verb tense means. As the title indicates, the exercises are verb drills which reinforce learning by repetition so that the language can be written without stopping to think. All the major verb tenses are covered with good coverage of irregular verbs. The number of different verbs used in the exercises is not huge but it is adequate. I was preparing for my GCSE Italian at the time and it was of enourmous benefit but could be used by anybody wanting to learn the structures of verbs. This book certainly helps bring clarity to one of the most difficult aspects of learning Italian and also, happily, has the answers at the back. Excellent value.
