The present tense of the verb "essere" "to be"


Negative form:



Io non sono I am not



Tu non sei/Lei non è You are not



Egli non è He is not



Ella non è She is not



Esso non è It is not



Noi non siamo We are not



Voi non siete You are not



Essi non sono They are not



Unlike English, in which "not" is put after the forms of "to be", in Italian "non" is placed before the forms of "essere".


Also, see the present tense of the verb "avere" "to have": negative form

For now that's all, see you at the next little lesson.
