PS: io sono, tu sei, egli è, noi siamo, voi siete, essi sono (italian lesson n.1, for other lessons send me $1,000,000 )

Stepunk,

Curious, when I learnt Italian, I also learnt verb conjugation with lui/loro like latex said, and not egli/essi.  Is it not the correct form?

lui/loro is normally used in "spoked" italian... but egli/ella/essi is the gramatically correct form... Don't worry about it.

that's right! Spoken italian usually is not very grammatically correct...

I think I have to take my money back from the Italian course then. 

And mind you, it was the Istituto Italiano di Cultura, a governmental office.
