Heading to Italy soon, can somebody teach me a little italian, enough to get by in Italy? |
I'm visiting Rome, Venice, Florence, Milan. I am trying to learn a little Italian before I leave. Could some body help me with it? Just help me translate a few sentences like "Good morning/afternoon/evening" "Excuse me, do you speak English" "Could you help me?" "How do I get to --" I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me how to pronouce them correctly, in case I made a mistake and offend some locals! I'm living in Russia, they don't sell dictionaries which translates into english, so I'm at a huge disadvantage here. So far, I haven't found a website that teaches only to cater for needs of tourists... |

I'm also trying to learn at least some basic Italian before I go. I came across this site last night and found it pretty useful. It has different levels of Italian as well as pronounciation and the phonetics of the words.

Take a look! I hope it helps you :o) |
