Italian Course Beginner Series Lesson 39: The Human Body Video Lecture | Learn Italian Language: For Beginners and Travellers

hello guys my name is Claudio as you may
already know and today we covered the
human body now this is not going to be
the only lesson on the human body but
it's going to be the first one and the
main one
so you're gonna learn the easiest most
common body parts and as an aside I am
very very happy when I see non-native
speakers teaching Italian on YouTube it
makes me feel proud and it makes me feel
very happy but when my girlfriend comes
up to me and says is this true I'm like
No who told you that she says oh this
guy in YouTube that makes me really
really unhappy girl ok so to clear the
confusion now if it's the first time
that you see this word then you are in a
good place if it's not the first time
there you see this word pay particular
attention now there's an issue there is
an issue and it's a language issue it's
a difference between the English
language and the Italian language
basically in English you say hair to
mean your hair the hair on top of your
head and the hair on your body there's
no difference so you always use the word
hair and you always use the word in its
singular form because that that's the
way it goes okay you would never say all
my hairs I washed my hairs you will
never say that something some people
might say that but normally people say I
washed my hair because you're talking
about all your hair in Italian there are
two main differences and these are
conceptual differences that you're going
to have to get a costume - now the first
one there is a difference between the
hair on your head and the hair on your
body so the hair on your head is Capelli
the hair on your body is barely
if you know about the gender in Italian
if you don't know go and watch the video
on the gender but if you know then you
know that these two words are plural
forms of masculine words in fact the
word hair is masculine whether you're
talking about
the body hair Beeler or the hair on your
head
Capello Capello now when you say own
Capello you actually mean one single
hair in Italian so you don't say hair
you always say has if we had to
translate literally we would have a
plural form in use in Italy so people in
Italy say Capelli eat Capelli to say the
hair so the plural form is always used
and the same for the body hair I have a
lot of hair on my back okay
the hair will be eat daily because we
are not talking about the hair on your
head so there's a distinction between
the hair on your head
Iike Pelle Iike Pelle with the double
consonant and the hair on your body
appear Li you peel it now this is not a
good picture to explain this because she
doesn't have any hair but I Paley is
what you use for the body hair I hope
that I've cleared up the confusion if
anybody is confused even 1% on this
topic still post a comment and I'll try
and help you further ok I really wanted
to get this out of the way perfect now
let's have a look at the most common
words now I know you can find these
things on Google but you know this might
help you out desta desta this means head
testa head front it
this means forehead Minto may
in tow this means chin mandi bola mandi
bola this means Joe Ferrante is feminine
Minto is masculine mandi bola is
feminine I recommend you write down the
gender as well for each word at least
for the ones that are not obvious okay
if the words end in oil or a than they
are obvious then there then it's obvious
that they are masculine or feminine
prospectively but if it ends in a it's a
little bit less obvious Ferrante is
feminine Minto mandibular one chip one
chair is chicks the plural of one cha so
it's a feminine word Guan cha one chick
or a kit this is the plural of or a cure
this is very weird
I've just realised that the word or aq
is masculine
basically this world is a transgender
word because it becomes feminine in its
plural form so it's or a cure you can
actually say or a Kia but I think it or
a Kia is wrong so I would stick with or
a cure which is certainly right and it's
masculine and it means is here it's one
ear and money becomes plural it becomes
or a key and that's feminine so kind of
weird
Capelli we've already seen that this
means head hair and it's plural call lo
the neck Spalla shoulder Skinner your
back go meter elbow sedara this is the
bottom pull tacho this is your calf okay
pull Pacho the muscle the calf Kavya
ankle down low knee heel PA foot okay
kabylia is feminine tolola is masculine
pietà is masculine and he behaves
normally in its plural form so it goes p
ad stinker stinker is the bone the run
through the lower part of your leg so
basically it's actually the name of the
lower part of your head so the calf is
the muscle stinker is the whole entire
thing
Janaki o is nee kasha fight
pancha belly Vita hips bit door ally
these are the pets basically the muscles
of the chest
Sina the boobs stomach or stomach and
abdomen Olli the abs abdominals apps
abdominal mono hand brachii is the whole
arm Boca math Boca
ochio I facture the face fat cha face
lack limit tears papilla the patil and
the eyebrow chili ax lack limit is
plural so lack limit is one single tear
and it's feminine now as you can see
there's also one word here and the color
is different because pretty much nobody
knows the meaning of this this is how
you say thumb but for the foot so your
biggest finger i'll lucha ila lucha this
is it we have the basics down and be the
