I've decided to set aside one hour a day to learn Italian. I've got the Michel Thomas course and the Hugo Learn Italian book. Does anyone want to join me and practice on here?

apples SD, apples...
Think this is the best learn the lingo book ever. The authors must have been smoking some aromatic herds when they wrote it....

Grazie, Gingerbells!

(And I'm not gonna try to say anything else in Italian, for I would surely embarrass myself!)
