Italian Verb Test

Anyone trying to learn a foreign language will soon discover that knowing how to conjugate the verbs is an important step. It’s not something you think about when using your natural tongue:

…

She goes
You go

I go

And then you start need to consider the different tenses.

…

They are going
We will go

I went

It soon becomes apparent that you need to rote learn all of the different combinations, and I have always found that the key to rote learning is to test myself. In my struggles to learn Italian I decided to combine this task with another interest and write an app.

Italian Verb Test is available for both Android and iOS, with the latter having a more modern feel for the interface.

• Test yourself on some of the most commonly used verbs
• Enter an answer or select it from a list of suggestions
• Conjugation tables for all of the verbs used
• Fully configurable - you decide which verbs and which tenses/moods are in the test
• Questions can be given in English or Italian
• No internet connection required
• No annoying ads

Italian Verb Test will test you on any combination of the following tenses/moods.

• Infinitive (Infinito)
• Present (Presente)
• Present Perfect (Passato Prossimo)
• Imperfect (Imperfetto)
• Present Subjunctive (Congiuntivo Presente)
• Imperfect Subjunctive (Congiuntivo Imperfetto)
• Present Conditional (Condizionale Presente)
• Imperative (Imperativo)
• Preterit (Passato Remoto)
• Future (Futuro Semplice)

The Pro version will show conjugation tables and test you on over 200 verbs, while there is also a free version.

Android Version

This was the first version of the app, written for Android.

iOS Version

After completing the Android version I decided to create the same app for the Apple family of mobile devices (iPhones and iPads). I redesigned the interface, to give it a fresher look and feel.
