Buongiorno!
and welcome to my blog. My school is doing something called “20 time” where 20% of our time (wow how aptly named) will be spend on personal projects. I have chosen to study the language of Italian and the culture of Italy because it’s something I’ve always wanted to do. I have visited Italy once last summer, and I loved every second I was with my relatives in their hometowns. Well I was there, I picked up on a few words and phrases and things. I find pronunciation easy for me, and in my phone I would write down how to say it, not how to spell. My goal is to be able to do both now. For my end project, I want to use WhatsApp to communicate with some of my relatives in Italy who only speak Italian. My nonno and nonna as well as my mother can help me, and I have lots of books from them. I also will be looking into online resources such as DuoLingo. I might even research the best way to learn a language and try some of those tactics.
Ciao!
