Identità personale & pubblica

What this unit covers

The topics below follow the published Italian Lang course framework for Unit 2. Italian Lang publishes no per-unit weighting, so there is no percentage to chase here.

Lessons in this unit

• Descrivere una persona : gender, number & agreement13 min · 3 objectivesInterpret descriptions of personality and identity in Italian texts · Apply noun–adjective agreement in gender and number · Recognize high-frequency vocabulary for personality
• Pronomi e verbi riflessivi : the self in action14 min · 3 objectivesInterpret texts using direct, indirect, and reflexive pronouns · Distinguish direct-object, indirect-object, and reflexive pronouns · Connect daily-routine and self-image language to Italian perspectives

What examiners penalize here

• For agreement items, first find the noun the adjective describes and note its **gender and number**, then decide whether the adjective is **Class 1** (four forms: -o/-a/-i/-e) or **Class 2** (two forms: -e/-i). That two-step check prevents the most common errors.
• For pronoun items, name the pronoun’s job before choosing: is it the **direct object**, an **indirect object with a**, or a **reflexive** turning the verb on the subject? Labeling the role first makes the correct form clear.

Practice Italian Lang

Our practice bank is drawn from across the whole course rather than filtered to one unit, which is closer to how the exam asks anyway — it will not tell you which unit a question is testing.
