Therefore, you must try to choose carefully the words that you are going to study. Be sure that they are really used in the daily life.
In this article, I am going to help you learn 30 daily used expressions, by using just 1 verb! It can be a great start if you have just begun learning Italian!
The verb that we are going to talk about today is the verb "to do/make" which is called in Italian "Fare"

Notes:-
1- To make the interrogative form of these 30 sentences, it's enough to add a question mark at the end of each sentence if you are writing and to change the intonation of your voice if you are speaking.
2- If you want to create the negative form of these sentences, you can simply add "Non" at the beginning.
3- We used the form "Faccio" which means "I do" as an example but you can use any form of the verb "fare"
As you can see, by learning this verb, you can say lots of useful expressions and you can tell in Italian language many things that you do during your day!!!
I suggest you to use these expressions as much as possible and to try to practice! It's the best way to win your fear and reach your aim and speak Italian!
GOOD LUCK!
