Let’s practice the passato prossimo. Quick review and quiz

This is just a review, so I am assuming you are already familiar with the passato prossimo regolare.

The quiz at the bottom of this page is a basic review with some new vocabulary. Look up the words and verbs you don’t know.

In a nutshell, the Passato Prossimo:

• Describes a complete action in the past.
• The passato prossimo regolare is the combination of essere and avere + past participle (ato-uto-ito):

Ieri  …

• … sono andato a scuola. –> I went to school.
• … ho mangiato il minestrone. –> I ate minestrone.

If you have doubts about essere or avere as auxiliary verbs, please practice with this exercise.

Don’t forget to check your score at the end of the quiz.
