Do you remember the verbs essere (Di dove sei?) and avere (Quanti anni hai?)?
Try to conjugate these verbs out loud. Check here:
ESSERE
io sono
tu sei
lui/lei/Lei è
noi siamo
voi siete
loro sono
AVERE
io ho
tu hai
lui/lei/Lei ha
noi abbiamo
voi avete
loro hanno
Here’s a quick quiz to check if you really remember. Write the answer with the person: io ho.

🔎 Osserviamo
Read the sentences. Do you see any changes or anything interesting from a grammatical point of view?
Sara ha fame.
Claudio ha sete.
Maria ha caldo.
Carlo ha freddo.
Marta è stanca.
Giuseppe è stanco.

💡Remember:
In the expressions we are learning, in English, there is only one verb: to be.
In Italian, some of them need to be essere, and some of them need to have avere.
We need to learn this by heart. Use the Quizlet set above to do it in a fun and effective way.
Just like the nationalities, the expressions that need essere change form according to the person and number.
Maria è italiana. Marco è italiano.
Maria è stanca. Marco è stanco. Maria e Marco sono stanchi.
Claude è francese. Anna è francese. Claude e Anna sono francesi.
Claude è triste. Anna è triste. Claude e Anna sono tristi.
