Unit 1 Pimsleur Speak and Read Essential Italian 1

This is the first lesson in Pimsleur's Italian series. I recorded this while driving home from work. Sorry it got so dark but that happens in Autumn. I know I'm not great (first lesson, duh!) so be kind but honest in any critique. Learn to Speak Italian - Don't Just Study it. With Pimsleur, you don't just study a new language, you learn to speak a new language. You learn to communicate in the language. You don't learn rules, vocabulary lists or grammar out of context. You acquire your new language by listening, mimicking and answering questions -- the same way you mastered your native language as a child. Because learning a new language is not about how many words you know, how many grammar rules you’ve learned, or how many catch phrases you're able to memorize. It's about understanding what you hear, and responding easily and naturally. It's about helping your brain do what it's designed to do. And with the help of the scientifically-proven Pimsleur Method, you too can speak Italian in just 30 Days.
