Ciao Maria ed a tutti
Non ho capito chiaro la parola "proprio" come usarlo.
Il mio dizionario dica la significa è own, one's, proper, exact, correct and really.
I know that we're not to get stuck on an exact meaning of a word but I just don't understand how, why or when to use this word.
lezione 4.4 dica.... proprio oggi = just today
lezione 6.4 dica..... non credo proprio = I'm not sure about that
anche lezione 10.2 dica..... mi piaceva proprio questa giacca = I really like this jacket.
Anche la parola "sia" di essere. I heard the lessons explanation but still not clear for me.
aiuto!!! :-\
Buona giornata

Ciao Fran,
"proprio" can be used in different way as:
- one's (own); of one's own
Example: rispettare la propria famiglia = to respect one's family
- just, exactly, right
Example:proprio oggi = just today
- really, very; quite
Example: mi piaceva proprio questa giacca = I really liked this jacket.
The verb "sia" is the sbjnuctive mood of the verb "essere" and it is explained in Rocket Italian
Premium Plius lesson 13.7 and 14.7.
I hope this helps.
Ciao
