cyclone24 1,814 Posted January 24, 2022 My lifetime bucket list trip is to spend a couple weeks in Italy. And I know we are probably going to do that within the next five years. I have the time so I thought let’s learn Italian. So I was doing Duolingo for about five months so I know how to say a lot of words but I don’t know how to put them all together if that makes sense? Anyone try something different that can put sentences together a little more fluently? Just see if anyone had any recommendations. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mookz 1,287 Posted January 24, 2022 Italian is mostly just putting -a and -o at the end of English words. And if they don't seem to understand, just talk louder. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frank 2,144 Posted January 25, 2022 I decided to just learn to speak with a foreign accent. That way, people will assume I speak both languages and will be impressed with how well I speak English. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The tapes/cds/YouTube videos will give you more fluidity Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
