We tried to do everything possible to make it easy for you! This book is your faithful companion on a trip to Italy. Marco, your guide, will be by your side! You will hear (through audio files) and see what you need to say in your daily encounters with Italians.

Much of the book is driven by pictorial information, for a user to be able to learn in a relaxed and easy way. It contains the basic information that can be used to communicate effectively, and also, as soon as you feel more confident, to create your own sentences. After an explanation on how to pronounce Italian, you will learn some basic notions of grammar, the building blocks of a language, and useful vocabulary and verbs that can be combined to express yourself in a simple but effective way. An online audio file of the samples will help you better understand and practice the sounds and intonation of the Italian language.

When in Italy, open your eyes, ears and try to imitate what you hear.

Never fear to speak, always try to communicate.

This book will give you an opportunity to be more immersed in all things Italian. Best wishes on your new path!
