Welcome to your B1 Italian course. By the end, you'll be able to handle everyday conversations, tell stories about your past, and describe your life in Italian with real confidence. You'll build your skills step by step, learn language you can use straight away, and feel more at ease expressing yourself. With Auracle, you will rapidly build towards fluency by speaking constantly and being asked to actively recall words and sentences. This is an exciting stage in your learning journey, so let's get started!

To speak Italian more fluently, you need to connect your ideas smoothly. In this deck, you'll learn common words called connectors. These will help you explain reasons, show results, and express contrasts, making your speech sound more natural and clear.

Let's start with giving reasons. The most common way to say 'because' in Italian is 'perché'. You use it to connect an action or situation with its cause. For example: 'Non sono uscito perché pioveva', which means 'I didn't go out because it was raining'.

Another way to give a reason is with 'siccome', which means 'since' or 'as'. Unlike 'perché', 'siccome' usually starts the sentence. For instance, 'Siccome pioveva, non sono uscito' means 'Since it was raining, I didn't go out'.
