Do you know how to say the in Italian?

It's a simple question with a rather complicated answer,

because there are actually seven different ways to say the in Italian.

And one of the reasons people find them so tricky is that they try to learn them all together,

which isn't usually a good idea as it could make your brain explode.

So today we'll start by reviewing the basics.

Il, la, I and Le.

And we'll show you using examples of the food that we ate in Milan recently

when we met up with one of our favorite Italian teachers, Stefano.

And I'm Mateo,

and today we're going to talk about something

that feels like it should be simple, but it's actually not so simple. All of the different ways to say

the in Italian. But don't worry, we're going to break it down over the next few episodes. So by the

end, it will all be much clearer. And we are going to give you the examples by talking about some Italian food we ate recently when we met our friend, Stefano.

Yes, I hope you're not hungry.

Yeah.

If you like, you can watch a video of the Italian conversation we had and they have the Italian transcript there as well so

you can read along as you listen or after you listen and you can find that video

in our Facebook group and I'll put a link in the show notes.

In the video I'm explaining all the Italian food that we have on the table in front of us.
