How can I learn Italian more quickly, since I already know French and Spanish?
November 9, 2008 by admin
I'm looking for some kind of Italian learning program that caters to people who already speak other Romance languages, or at least moves quite quickly. I'm especially looking for something I can listen to in the car, since I have a very heavy commute… I want to avoid something like the Pimsleur program, I have it now and it's driving me crazy since it repeats everything so many times; and I can already understand Italian, for the most part, I just can't speak it.
Thanks!
if u really interested in italian, i suggest u better buy 'digital publishing' italiano 1. there are two versions of them: V10 and V11. V10 is designed for a normal computer, means u will not be able to play it without CD. V11 is the other way.
the software is not expensive and very helpful.

As you speak French, you will quickly be able to speak Italian for a casual conversation. Being fluent is, of course, takes way much time.

Why don't you listen to music? Vasco Rossi!!! and others (de André, Negramaro, Mia Martini). Some of them have very clear pronunciation and you learn a new word every day (or a dozen of them). I myself learnt Italian by reading on the Internet (speaking before Spanish as well). So this would be my recommendation, but you cannot do that while driving. I definitely recommend music or audio short stories! Good luck.
