These are notes and flashcards from language learning videos I watch at Yabla. Each video is about 3-5 minutes long, is in full-speed authentic Italian (e.g. from movies, or commercials, or interviews) and below the video is the text in Italian and English. If you click on a word you get the definition. I try to watch one video per day, record useful phrases as flashcards, and then write a little review of it using Google Translate and Linquee. There is also a game at the end of each video where you listen to the video again and have to guess 10 words that are blanked out. A Yabla account costs $10 per month, but if you have the time to watch a video everyday, it is worth it, as your listening comprehension of authentic language will improve greatly.

I Commissario Manara, Ep1, Part11
Notes taken on January 24, 2014 by Edward Tanguay
Questo era un gravissimo episodio. Il testamento della persona che è morto, stato letto ad alta voce. Poi una donna ha chiesto al medico, perqué era arrivato così presto sulla scena del crimine. Sembrava piuttosto nervoso a questa domanda.
I'm surprised by...
 
all those present have been summoned
 
except for the gentlemen here
 
now, if you are all in agreement, ...
 
let me finish
 
that's not good news
 
it looks good here (coming in a room)
 
because he's not there
 
I don't think those were his intentions
 
but what do you mean?
 
you remember, right?
 
I should have arrived beforehand and not afterwards
 
which I can't understand
 
what are you saying / driving at?
