A2 Mastery Review: Society & Communication
Welcome to your final A2 review! In this lesson, we tie together key grammar points, past tenses, modal verbs, and polite communication needed for daily life in Italy.
1. Essential Patterns
- Dovere + Infinitive: Expressing obligation or necessity (e.g., Devo partire - I must leave).
- Volere/Potere: Making polite requests and stating desires.
2. Common Mistakes
Be careful not to mix up auxiliary verbs in the past tense (passato prossimo): motion verbs and reflexive verbs take essere, while most others take avere.
| Verb Type | Auxiliary | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Motion | Essere | Sono andato/a |
