Italian speaking practice and grammar tutoring
For example, the use of imperfetto and passato prossimo is taught towards the beginning of the Italian grammar learning experience but, as I have tried to explain in an old post of mine, it is one of the trickiest aspects of Italian.
The Italian Writing Challenge, the creative project that required participants to write a short Italian text on a different topic every day, is over and it has been an awesome experience.
But what is the thing you probably do the most during your day? Check your smartphone. So why don’t you use your phone to practice languages? It could be a great opportunity to improve some of your skills without hassle.
But I have the feeling that, if you go once, you can’t help but go there again. And again. At least, that’s the feeling I have after being there for the first time this year.
The book is In altre parole by the Pulizer Prize winner Jhumpa Lahiri, basically a declaration of love for the Italian language.
That post was mainly focused on building vocabulary and learning new words. But mastering a language involves many other abilities.
It takes time, devotion, and a lot of effort. If somebody tells you that learning a foreign language is easy, he or she is either a genius or someone who thinks that you just need to know how to tell the time in a certain language to say that you are fluent in such language.
I am not fit enough, I tend to get tired very easily, and I don’t have much time to exercise. But I love hiking. I love it really badly.
