[Eva · Rating 3 out of 5]

Livro bastante útil para um curso de línguas, dado o foque na gramática, ensinar as pronunciações dos vários sons, e ter bastantes exercícios para nos habituarmos às regras do italiano. A minha grande queixa é os «É» estarem escritos «E'», o que me causa sempre bastanta confusão porque apóstrofos são usados nesta língua.

The conversations in this book should also be translated. The lessons are in Italian; with out the transcripts in English. There are occasions where the character use words in Italian which have not been previously covered in other chapters.
