1 cassette and book
Vittoria Bowles has written a friendly introduction to Italian that's easy right the way through. The book is in two parts. The first teaches you the basic grammar you'll need, with lively dialogues, explanations and vocabulary. In the second you move on to practising what you've just learnt in a range of real-life situations. 'Beginner's Italian' is ideal because:
- Everything is explained in simple English
- There are hints throughout to make learning Italian easy
- There's lots of information about life in Italy
- What you learn is useful right from the start
- All the words are listed in the back of book
- There's a key to all the activities
- There's a special section on Italian sounds
The cassette has been specially recorded to accompany the book by native Italian speakers. It contains: A pronunciation guide; dialogues from the book, with key vocabulary highlighted; and new exercises in listening and speaking for each unit.
