| Italian for Dummies (With Audio CD) by For Dummies Italian for Dummies | | Very informative book into the Italian language.. Don't expect to be fluent in the language by the end, but you will have a general knowledge of the meaning of many phrases. Also this book is excellent for the person who wants to know some grammar rules and would like to have some knowledge of how the words are pronounced. Definately worth the time and money. | | Italian for Dummies (With Audio CD) by For Dummies A book about Italian, not a book to learn Italian | This is a pleasant introduction to the Italian language. For the speaker of another romance language, it might be a decent, down-and-dirty way to muddle through. It is also a very pleasant book to spend time with-cute, patient and decidedly non-threatening.
If you're thinking about learning Italian, this could also be a good introduction-a way to sample the language's complexities before diving in.
Lynn Hoffman, author New Short Course in Wine,The | | Italian for Dummies (With Audio CD) by For Dummies Not for dummies! | | Learning a language is difficult, at least for me, and I was disappointed with this book. Yes, it does provide a lot of information, but it is not presented in a way that makes learning the language any easier, fun or engaging. And, since I enjoy learning Italian, I've tried several types of programs. I use this book more as a reference tool. Can't imagine ever learning the language from scratch with it! Clearly not for dummies. | | Italian for Dummies (With Audio CD) by For Dummies Just a peek | This book and CD is a bird's eye view introduction to Italian. If you a serious about learning the language, choose a product with lots more audio content. Unless you hear the spoken language you'll never grasp it.
On the other hand, if a quick look is what you're looking for, then this is the book for you. | | Italian for Dummies (With Audio CD) by For Dummies Fantastico! | | This is a really easy book to use. believe it or not, Italian is my first language, English my second & I speak several others as well!
