Why Italy
Does anyone know any good ways to learn Italian?
I've always wanted to learn Italian, and I'm taking it as a language. Any advice to help make learning it a little easier?

- no clue i just know its the laguage of romance well at least one of them. email me at sweetsk8er118@yahoo.com and we can talk about it more i look exactly like my avatar im really hot
- I had the blessing of being raised Siciliano...so the language is second nature. Now, for those in other circumstances....I reccomend Pimsleur CD's sold @ Barnes n' Noble. Fantastic teaching method...highly reccomended, and not so expensive that it'll break the bank.
- The best way to learn any language is to take a class. Pimsleur is a great way to get started on your own. The complete program is pretty expensive, but luckily a lot of libraries carry it, so you can probably learn for free. How cool is that? You can also look for language learning partners at http://www.sharedtalk.com/. Or just search Google. http://www.google.com/search?q=free+italian+lessons&btnG=Search&hs=Zj3&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial_s
- I took it from a very good instructor ... defiantly not fluent ... but the instructor focused on what a 5-year-old talks about and it made sense. Also, I really practiced my numbers ... I can count to 10,000. Yes, I Rollerblade and count my leg strokes in Italian. This is very helpful 'cas when you ask a question, 40% of the answer is usually numbers ... What time is it? <2:28> ... What is the address? <4454 W. Main St.> ... When is your birth day? 85/07/09 <Italians put their year first, month, day> ... How long is the train ride? 3 1/2 hours. See, it really pays off to learn the numbers. It does little good to ask a question and not be able to understand the answer. Buona fortuna!!! (Good luck)
- You can watch movies in Italian, read books in Italian, maybe Italian magazines. There must also be good sites that help you learn.
- Learn it from a native speaker and watch RAI.I also recommend movies starring Giancarlo Giannini.You can laugh and learn at the same time.
