Italiano

Italian course for Portuguese speakers

Spoken by approx. 65 million people, Italian has Latin roots, making it relatively easy for Portuguese speakers. The style adopted for this work is mostly the spoken language, but also a more formal language better suited to business. This course teaches you to converse in Italian within six to eight months, at a rate of 20 to 30 minutes a day. You can also find out about the customs of a Latin country through the diverse dialogues and notes on culture.

The recordings include all the texts in Italian for each lesson and the translation exercises from the book. These progressively more challenging texts have been recorded by professional native speakers. You can download all or part of the MP3 CD recordings on your MP3 player.

• Lively, useful dialogue
